I break down
Fear is sinking in
The cold comes
Racing through my skin
Searching for a way to get to you
Through the storm

You go, giving up your home
Go, leaving all you’ve known
You are not alone

With arms up
Stretched into the sky
With eyes like
Echos in the night
Hiding from
The hell that you’ve been through
Silent one

You go, giving up your home
Go, leaving all you’ve known
You go, giving up your home
Go, leaving all you’ve known
You are not alone

You go, giving up your home
Go, leaving all you’ve known
You go, giving up your home
Go, you are not unknown

You are not alone
You are not unknown
You are not alone

Memories consume like opening the wounds
I’m picking me apart again
You all assume
I’m safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again
I don’t want to be the one the battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize that I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream…
I don’t know why I instigate
And say what I don’t mean…
I don’t know how I got this way
I know it’s not alright…
So I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more than any time before
I have no options left again
I don’t want to be the one the battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize that I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream…
I don’t know why I instigate
And say what I don’t mean…
I don’t know how I got this way
I’ll never be alright…
So I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit tonight

I’ll paint it on the walls
Cuz I’m the one that falls
I’ll never fight again
and this is how it ends…

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream…
But now I have some clarity to show you what I mean…
I don’t know how I got this way
I’ll never be alright…
So I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit tonight

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here’s not right today.
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia’s all I got left
I don’t know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed but
I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It’s like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
[And watches everything]
So I know that when it’s time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
right underneath my skin

It’s like I’m paranoid lookin’ over my back
It’s like a whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I’ve got a face in me
points out all my mistakes to me
You’ve got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia’s probably worse
I don’t know what set me off first
but I know what I can’t stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can’t add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
[And watches everything]
So you know that when it’s time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
right inside your skin

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
