It takes one piece
To crumble down the walls and find peace
Undo the damage done to my state
And all that wasted breath couldn't amount to an accomplishment
And I'll just wait around
For something big to show
But nothing ever comes
Just patience and an afterglow
Take it all back, falling off track
Biting my tongue in half with my secrets kept
I'm always flaunting old scars, keeping friends far
Sleeping alone again, like it's always been
I miss the way I had my mindset laid out
Unquenched and with no doubts
I threw away the reasons I could never focus up
And pull myself out of this rut
I never truly learned to take the time
To smell the roses at my feet before they wilt and die
I never truly learned to take the time
To smell the roses at my feet before they wilt and die
Take it all back, falling off track
Biting my tongue in half with my secrets kept
I'm always flaunting old scars, keeping friends far
Sleeping alone again, like it's always been
Take it all back, falling off track
Biting my tongue in half with the secrets kept
I'm always flaunting old scars, keeping friends far
Sleeping alone again, how it's always been
(Take it all back, falling off track) And I'll just wait around
(Biting my tongue in half with my secrets kept) For something big to show
(I'm always flaunting old scars, keeping friends far) But nothing ever comes
(Sleeping alone again, like it's always been) Just patience and an afterglow
