lyrics

What have I become
I never thought it would come to this
I never thought
I never thought then
What have I become
I never thought it would come to this
I never thought then
The bottle's empty
Once again I feel so weak
For giving in to the demons inside of me
My head is spinning
Is it over now
My heart is bleeding and my mind is begging, "block out the sound"
Can you hear me now
I am your darkest fear
I don't need my desire
But I don't desire what I need
This question sears like an iron inside of me
How long's it been since I've felt safe inside my own head
Is it too much to ask to just feel whole
The answers seem so far away
The answers seem so far
My own reflection I don't know who you are
The answers seem so far
So far away
Release me
Set me free
Relinquish everything
Recapture who you are
Channel that inside your heart
Embrace what you've been through
Wear your battle scars proud
These bonds will not define me
Broken I'm still better than this
Leaving my past behind me
I won't trade anything
My past is who I was
And through it all I became who I am
And that's someone who knows the strength of frailties
Through who I was I am born
The bottles empty
I feel so weak
Armed with what is me
I won't retreat
I will not bend or break
Never again
I won't bow so
Laugh while you can
Laugh while you can
