Redeeming A Monster

Dear Self,

Stop eating your own foot

Try saying something

Worth listening to

Cause every time you cover up

Your problems you say

"This was the last time

I'll never do it again"

(I'll never do it again)

And it feels like

I never really knew you at all

So let's give this some time

And maybe it will resolve itself

(Maybe, maybe)

I'm so tired of

(Maybe we'll be)

Making the same mistakes

I lost myself

So long ago

I hid my sins

Where I thought no one would know

And every time

I look back I see

The person you used to love in me

And it gets so hard

To see my own reflection sometimes

I'm standing unconscious

And I'm ready to wake up

I hope you brought

Some color with you

Cause these lines get grayer

From here on out

The deeper we go

I lost myself

So long ago

I hid my sins

Where I thought no one would know

And every time

I look back I see

The person you used to love in me

In me

(And every time

I look back I see

The person you used to love in me)

You can't stop me from making the same mistakes

Can't stop me from making the same mistakes

You can't stop me from making the same mistakes

The same mistakes (In me)

You can't stop me from making the same mistakes

You can't stop me from making the same mistakes

Can't stop me from making the same mistakes

(I'm pleading

For just a little more

Time to heal myself)

And I'm hoping you're still here

As I walk up to your door

But you're gone
