about

This song is about being frustrated with the decisions that other people around you make, and their effects on your own life and choices. It's pretty angsty.

Anna, you are great. Thank you for being such a great friend and person, I love you a lot.

lyrics

LYRICS:

You are trying to be different, you are trying to make friends and you're trying to find the reason.
You are trying to get even with the monsters on your bed, gnawing at your feet but you're afraid to look down.
And people are people, we all make mistakes, but I'm afraid that the disasters will eventually add up and one day you'll be caught in a crossfire with no place to take cover.

We are hoping for the best but fully expecting the worse, and I'll never leave here.
...But I never wanna live here.

I'm stuck inside an endless maze, never know where I am.
I have no hole to crawl back to.
I'm a turtle without a shell, a fish out of water, and I just wanna be killed.
Fuck your righteous "it gets better"s, you don't who I am, do me a favor, shut your fucking mouth.
Make me forget about the knives pressed to my throat.
Make me forget about the murders of people I know.

My parents love me more than I could probably ever imagine so I'll never leave them.
I have nowhere to go.

We could kill 15 birds with one stone, or feed 1 bird with 2 plates and we will choose the latter.
This wealth we have can't be spread too thin, at least that's what we tell ourselves to feel better...
There are answers to these questions inside our actions but we're too scared to leave our homes.
I'm afraid of where I come from, but I'm even more afraid of where I go.

We try so damn hard to be honest with ourselves about how we feel.
I'm a liar.
