lyrics
I’m going for the throat. I won’t waste my time. I’ve got something to rid myself of, to put on the line. I won’t mince words, I can’t hold back. Every day, all I do is doubt myself and I’m starting to lose track. I refuse to keep on trying when I have what you lack.
I wish I could change, but this is who I am. I love too hard, I’ll die too young, but I will never end. If what I have is not enough, then I hope you find someone whose love will never be a bluff. Good luck.
I don’t need to struggle, wondering if I’m worth your time. When it all comes back to hit you, I’ll be just fine. You want, not need. You cry, not bleed. If things were as hard as you make them seem, then you would cease to breathe. Don’t lie to me. Your problems are self-made, and you know it’s due to greed.
Just give me space, give me time to think. You took me to the edge of life, you brought me to the brink.
I don’t need to give in. I don’t need to quit. My purpose in this life is to climb out of this pit.
