lyrics

It eats me up alive
It's all consuming
Long as I'm alive
It's still there looming
While I may try to seem
Unassuming
The cards are down

Adrenaline junkie
Strung out on drama
Foolishly believes
In a thing called karma
Expecting retribution
For past trauma
That won't ever arrive

And it won't be different this time

All the things we dare not say
The distractions that get in the way
Of the pursuit of peace of mind
Because I fall apart each time

Why are there mistakes
We keep on making
Diminished self respect
Ripe for the taking
Aware of all the things
I should be forsaking
But can't let go

Just let me get it out
Straight up neurotic
It's getting to the point
Of borderline psychotic
I just can't help but feel
That stare's hypnotic
And driving me insane

And I wish I could refrain

All the things we dare not say
The distractions that get in the way
Of the pursuit of peace of mind
Because I fall apart each time

Another whisper in my ear
Reignites the fire
Desperate for a way
To dial back desire
Obsession is a drug
I need no supplier
I've plenty on my own

All the things we dare not say
The distractions that get in the way
Of the pursuit of peace of mind
Because I fall apart each time
