Re-recorded version of track 4 from my 2015 EP "Panic"

Instrumental by Sam Whitaker (www.youtube.com/user/SamwhitakerMusic)
(soundcloud.com/samwhitaker)

Vocals and lyrics by Carl Schulz

lyrics

Give me a sign that things will be okay. I’m sick of feeling so afraid of what I have to say. In my chest, my beating heart’s at rest. I tried to fix this all, but I’ve made a mess. I fell from grace, I am what you detest.

Something’s wrong with me. I push away everyone who shouldn’t be. I learn to love, I learn to die. I let go of myself, I didn’t even try.

Do you call me by my name, or am I just your past? I should have known, the way I am, that this would never last. It hurts to say it’s me who let this die. I should have been patient, I should have tried to revive. Instead you’re losing sleep because I lost my mind. If it’s any comfort, I still don’t feel alive.

Oh god how dare I beg forgiveness. I’m a victim of my love, of my patience.

Somewhere along the way, I will smile again. I hope you understand if it’s only pretend. My veins are crumbling, my bones will collapse. By the time I’m done, my time on earth will finally have lapsed. Decode my message, decode my cries. If you are broken, it should be me who dies.
