Lyrics:
Always running from the pain
Do anything to avoid change
Nothing feels wrong when I’m not listening
Pretend we never said goodbye
It’s easier to live if I act blind
Nothing’s complicated if it stays the same

Complacent mind and toxic behavior
I’m the only one that’s stopping myself from getting better
And more than anything I want to be your everything
I wish that you could see I’m really trying
But there is no denying

I’ve always looked better in a straight jacket
Felt safer in this cell I’m in
Only sane when medicated and sedated
Therapy’s afraid of me
Religion is ashamed of me
Can’t escape this hell that I’ve created

If I leave will you be fine
It’s probably what you needed all along
Can’t make you cry if I’m not by your side
Sometimes I’ve thought I’m better off dead
But I just can’t get over my head
Suicide will never kill my pride

Complacent mind and toxic behavior
I’m the only one that’s stopping myself from getting better
And more than anything I want to be your everything
I wish that you could see I’m really trying
But there is no denying

I’ve always looked better in a straight jacket
Felt safer in this cell I’m in
Only sane when medicated and sedated
Therapy’s afraid of me
Religion is ashamed of me
Can’t escape this hell that I’ve created

It’s time to break free, no more suffocating
Gotta give in to what I know
You’ve already saved me, you’ve always loved me
Gotta let go of control

It’s time to break free, no more suffocating
Gotta give in to what I know
You’ve already saved me, you’ve always loved me
Gotta let go of control
