Fractured Resolve

I've been stood on for so long

Believed every word, though it was wrong

Empty promises you sold

I kept warm in the bitter cold (tick tock,

tick tock)

My mind is spinning out of control again

But I never lied to you,

my friend

The truth has a way of coming clean

Do I have to be evil just to make it through?

I was too kind,

too willing, believing in you!

Enough is enough,

the fire is lit

But I still have hope,

I won't ever quit! (yeah)

Counting steps to clear my head

Repeating every single word you said

I was too willing,

too soft

While you kept climbing up aloft

But I haven’t lied

Nothing left to hide

The truth is coming out tonight

No more running from the light

Do I have to be evil just to make it through?

I was too kind,

too willing, believing in you!

Enough is enough, the fire is lit

But I still have hope,

I won't ever quit!

(never quit!)

I am sick of this cycle

But I'm still trying

Yeah, I'm still trying... (shh)
