Love you guys so much! This is one I wrote years ago. I added the outro to try and make it a bit more epic haha I want to be a man of integrity. Over anything else. I've been writing a lot about that lately. The struggle of a broken man trying to overcome his instincts for iniquity. I think I may turn that concept into an album ;) Thank you so much for listening! I could not be more grateful!

Lyrics:
Drifting through moments then all of the sudden it hits me
What if I stumble and all of my world starts to fall
The people I love lose respect though they swore they’re unwavering
Everything crumbles as I’m just here losing it all

Hearing these critics they’re cheering and saying they hate me
Taking my whole life of work and burn it to the ground
Was trying to open my heart and they go and betray me
Putting a knife in my back without making a sound

I could be doing fine perfect life everything is great
’til you take my mind and hypnotize show my world in flames
Nowhere to hide from what’s inside can’t run can’t get away
Guess one more night of constant fight it always stays the same

Won’t you let me go
I’m crumbling
I’m crumbling

Fantasizing bout the worst that could be I’m not ready
Making decisions preserving what’s not even real
false prophecies keep on following make me unsteady
Just wanna be free of these troublesome dreams let me be

I could be doing fine perfect life everything is great
Til you take my mind awaken all my memories my mistakes
And you hang them high won’t let them die control me with my shame
Say wait til they can see your darkest parts and run away

But you’re never right you always lie your promise never comes
I’m still standing I’m still breathing having died not from your gun
Haven’t fallen in the slaughter lost the people that I love
You’re a liar you’re a thief and It’s time to give you up

Won’t you let me go
I’m crumbling
I’m crumbling
Won’t you let me go
I’m crumbling
I’m crumbling

My father
Please take this thorn
Cause I’m bleeding
I’m tired and worn
Please listen
Don’t you hear me cry
I’m weary
I need your light
