I can't seem to find the right place
I can only live in the past
And in the problems I can't seem to face
Or maybe my thoughts are just racing too fast
Everything's not okay, no I'm not all right
The days just seem to drag and I can't move on
My body just won't stop putting up this fight
And it hits me harder as dusk turns to dawn
Memories pull me apart 'til I'm nothing but bone
I can't catch a break from the bitter nor the sweet
The nostalgia creeps up on me when I'm all alone
Why can't I just accept this defeat?
And through it all, I've learned to be
Everyone and everything except for me
I can only live in the past
And in the problems I can't seem to face
Or maybe my thoughts are just racing too fast
Everything's not okay, no I'm not all right
The days just seem to drag and I can't move on
My body just won't stop putting up this fight
And it hits me harder as dusk turns to dawn
Memories pull me apart 'til I'm nothing but bone
I can't catch a break from the bitter nor the sweet
The nostalgia creeps up on me when I'm all alone
Why can't I just accept this defeat?
And through it all, I've learned to be
Everyone and everything except for me
