lyrics

Waves crashing at my feet,
always becoming what I need.
Everything that I have worked for
I have earned and you took from me.
I'm sorting through this mess
that the doctors call my head.
I think i finally see that you're exactly what is wrong with me.

I have spent all these years
Trying to piece together why I wasn't good enough
To keep you here, to keep you here.
You ran away crushing all that's left of me.

Now I've got to lead the way
for someone who looks up to me.
How can I know what's right
when all I know is how to run.
You took the best of me
then left me at my worst.
You never stopped to see my heart.

As walls close in I still can't sleep.
The weight of life squared on my shoulders.
Pieces lay in the fire
of what we used to be
it took its toll on me,
toll on me.

Was i just a pawn that you used in your plan?
Or somehow a measure you drew in the sand.
Whatever the reason it's easy to see,
That when you were thinking it was not of me

Just a child, of two different backgrounds.
Black or white, I'll still never know.

Your love wasn't free.
You all abandoned me.
I was just a kid.
How could you give me up?

It still pains me to know,
that I was not enough.
I've made myself, I don't owe you a thing.

I don't owe you a thing.

As walls close in I still can't sleep.
The weight of life squared on my shoulders.
Pieces lay in the fire
of what we used to be,
it took its toll on me.
