Time is going fast and going slow
Something's not right in the place
I thought I belonged
You could change my life
Confiscate my pride
I'll let you believe that I'm one of you outside
Deep inside I'm who I love to be
I'm not up to your standards
Alienated in your humanity
Wrong home
Weird world
People wondering
You loosened the stitches of my mentality
Unhinged me from pulling my strings
I don't need anybody
I most certainly don't need you
I need dreams that I'll stick to
Laced with a desire to escape
You only hurt me to make the truth real
If that's how you want it to be
Then you have yourself a deal
I wanna fake my death
Just to see how much you actually care
You better start loving me as I am
I'm choosing my happiness
It's the only thing that gets between me and you
It's the only thing getting me through
This candlelight town shines a light
On too many flaws
Problems that won't dissolve
And when I see you cry
I can't help but feel my heart sink
Despite the bad things you've said to me
It seems like long ago
In this moment, it doesn't matter anymore
Did you ever replace what was taken away?
Did this make you stop and think?
Realization finally struck and made your heart sink
Maybe we need each other more than it seems
Perhaps this concludes our fighting
Tragedy and solace are blending
Is this what you call an ending?
