in general
we're the summary
of all our favorite memories
typically
worn proudly on our sleeves
with all our hopes and dreams
but not me

everything your parents said was right
but you were young and naïve and you didn't believe
and now you're struggling to sleep at night
if anything happened you said you'd be alright
but now you're doubled over in stress
as you scramble to change your return flight
it's adorable how you think that you've got it all figured out
while any naysaying memory is slowly lowered into the ground
-
but please don't take it too personally
i'm just doing what i think would be best for my sanity
and if that means this then i won't resist
if that means this then i won't resist, i promise
please just forget about me
maybe it'll be better for the both of us once i'm entirely flushed from your memories
and if that means me just set me free
if that means me just let me be
-
and you'll look up to the sky and scream
you were right
-
my conscious is killing me again
burnt bridges and severed ends
so i take it back to a time when
i could trust my friends
and i lose myself in
the thought of making amends
fables of remorse and forgiveness
and a filling of the holes they left
but reality gets to me
and i fall back asleep
cause i can't stand to see
the world as it's meant to be
when reality gets to me
i fall back asleep
cause the only place i feel safe now
is somewhere deep inside my psyche
-
and you'll look up to the sky and scream
you were right

saw my life
pass me by
in record time
won't get out
can't escape
so say goodbye
-
complacency will be the death of me
i'll wait til the last second for all my life
dreaming about what will or what should have been
while convincing myself everything will be alright
is this giving up or is this just getting old?
accepting your losses and moving away
is this giving up or is this just getting old
who really wants to be remembered anyway?

what more are we than a log of our mistakes?
rushing to the hospital to pump out the pills you know you'll take
but don't you worry, don't you cry
this will all make sense in another life
there'll be a moment when you realize
life's not about getting what you want, it's about getting by
and you cuddle these false comforts so you can rest at night
so sleep tight
rest well
maybe tomorrow we'll evacuate you from your own hell
sleep tight
rest well
tomorrow will be the day
yeah, tomorrow will be the day
-
so wash my memories clean
from when the phrase "i need help" meant nothing to me
and when the memories come rushing back
i'll scream

it's all downhill from here
so why try harder?
your best has come and gone
so why even bother?
just sit back, relax
and let nothingness swallow you whole
there's no use in fighting
the void is now your home
can you feel it fading?
