Withered
Lyrics
I told myself that one day I'd be free
Of everything, you had me believe
Of self-doubt, and longing to be, another me
I'll be ok, I'll be okay
You promised you'd care for me
A life spent wondering what I could be
What I could
I hear your voice in the back of my head
Screaming out, you'll never be enough
Of all the words playing on repeat
They had to be the nightmare of my past
It's taken years for me to get this far
For me to say, I forgive everything
Still I don't understand you
What makes you think
You could choke a child
It's taken years for me to get this far
My resolve is withering
I chose to forgive you once
I might not do it again
I hear your voice in the back of my head
Screaming out, you'll never be enough
Of all the words playing on repeat
They had to be the nightmare of my past
I dream of the day
That I'll be set free
Of self doubt and longing to be someone else
They wither away
At all I can be
I've lost my potential to anxiety
I'd rather dig my own grave
I told myself that one day I'd be free
Of everything, you had me believe
Of self-doubt, and longing to be, another me
I'll be ok, I'll be okay
You promised you'd care for me
A life spent wondering what I could be
What I could
I hear your voice in the back of my head
Screaming out, you'll never be enough
Of all the words playing on repeat
They had to be the nightmare of my past
It's taken years for me to get this far
For me to say, I forgive everything
Still I don't understand you
What makes you think
You could choke a child
It's taken years for me to get this far
My resolve is withering
I chose to forgive you once
I might not do it again
I hear your voice in the back of my head
Screaming out, you'll never be enough
Of all the words playing on repeat
They had to be the nightmare of my past
I dream of the day
That I'll be set free
Of self doubt and longing to be someone else
They wither away
At all I can be
I've lost my potential to anxiety
I'd rather dig my own grave
