With my picture laid on paper
Do you ever think of me
When you sit and draw your mind out
Maybe then you'll finally see
I put my back against the wall
Just so that I could watch it fall
Only to create the distance made
Of a false sense of hope
You know I never liked the long drive home
(The long drive home)
I know you never liked the thought of being left on your own
Keep hiding
From the past mistakes you can't escape
Or keep fighting
The urge to kill this when I don't deserve it
I'm left with no words to say
But you need to know that I'm not okay
Cause every day I seem to climb uphill
I'll be here
Life standing still
Wasted time adds up to nothing
But I'll be something
Mark me up as wrong and broken
Don't be scared to tell me honestly
Everything you'd want from me
Forget about my empathy
And tell me just where I should be
Don't be scared to tell me honestly
Everything you'd want from me
Forget about my empathy
And tell me just where I should be
Keep hiding
From the past mistakes you can't escape
Or keep fighting
The urge to kill this when I don't deserve it
I'm left with no words to say
But you need to know that I'm not okay
Cause every day I seem to climb uphill
I'll be here
Life standing still
Don't be scared to tell me honestly
Everything you'd want from me
Forget about my empathy
And tell me just where I should be
Don't be scared to tell me honestly
Everything you'd want from me
Forget about my empathy
And tell me just where I should be
Keep hiding
From the past mistakes you can't escape
Or keep fighting
The urge to kill this when I don't deserve it
I'm left with no words to say
But you need to know that I'm not okay
Cause every day I seem to climb uphill
I'll be here
Life standing still
Life standing still
Life standing still
