That’s the thing about pain. You live with it, you embrace the rightness of it, until someone finally reaches through the broken glass, and grabs ahold of the real you, the you that had been lost and hurting. Broken and bleeding, they hold on for dear life, refusing to let go.
They join you in your pain.
And as you watch the blood pour down their arm, you realize, the pain is you, you are the pain, you are the master of your own destiny, you built up the shards of glass.
And now, it isn’t just effecting you.
But someone else who isn’t deserving of it.
Which makes you pause and take notice — did I ever deserve the same thing?
Rachel Van Dyken, Empire
But there's a part of me that roams
That belongs to the road and begs me to run
Asking Alexandria, See What's On The Inside
I've always tried to be
What you needed from me
And along the way forgot who I am
Asking Alexandria, See What's On The Inside
You're not the only one who feels like they're alone
Against all the odds and after all
You've made it this far
Asking Alexandria, You've Made It This Far
Breathe, close your eyes and breathe
I know, it feels like it's consuming
And you're tired of this feeling
And you try, you tried so damn hard
Sometimes it feels like falling
And you're just waiting for the ground
Asking Alexandria, You've Made It This Far
Smile, they always tell you to smile
To appreciate the things you have
But it doesn't change what's on your mind
So you smile, but it's only on the outside
So they can't see the pain, it's overwhelming
You're needing your lies
Asking Alexandria, You've Made It This Far
I'm so tired of not knowing who I'm supposed to be
I just want to find my way again
Asking Alexandria, Find Myself
How do I kill myself
Or the parts that have been created to please?
Asking Alexandria, Find Myself
If I could start over
There's so many things that I'd change
Asking Alexandria, If I Could Erase It
I'm in a constant state of stress
From the weight that's on my chest
And I don't wanna pretend that I'm okay
I've always been the kind to (Bury shit inside to)
Let it rot and gradually consume me
Let it build into a rage (That I take out in a way)
That makes everyone I love fucking hate me
Asking Alexandria, If I Could Erase It
