i have a bad habit of expecting people to be what i see them to be, what i want them to be, and then being disappointed when they are not. I'm not saying they are bad people, they just do shitty things. It's a very selfish thing to drag someone along and pull them into your misery pit. But if one does not chain themselves to an anchor they wont go down with it. That's often harder to do than you realize. I liked to think in my head I was the thing that would spark a change, but really i am not better off than they are....
lyrics
its too late to take the words back
but i wouldn't bother even if i could
as much as i believe things could have been different
the path was set in stone
i still think daily how its probably my fault
i lost because i cared the most
i heard your lies from the top of my pedestal
i had to let you go
i wanted to keep you safe
but that wasn't my job
i hoped youd stay away
but that was where you belonged
poison wrapped in gold
lying to yourself but you don't lie to me?
i was a product of your environment
i hope you never hit rock bottom
because i wont be there waiting for you
actually ill see you when you get here
