Debut track from southern WV Emo/Alternative band A Blue Shell Paradox

lyrics

I don't have all the answers
to the secrets that you keep
my strength is on the board
and it's all up to me
but as long as you love me
no point in losing sleep
I've played the right cards
and that's a tough one to beat
You've shown me your way
a presence here to stay
I can't break it for the life of me
the salt on my lips
it's all I can fit
not another moment like this

I overestimate myself
when honestly its time for me
to reclaim my health
and all these things that I have seen
I haven't gained I haven't learned
a single damn thing
then all these ways you haunt me
with friends like these
who needs enemies

To hell with them
they were never my friends
I hate feeling obligated
to all of the trends
if I come off as cocky
don't get the wrong idea
It's part of who I am
to maintain appearances
which leads me to think
am I really me
do I call the shots
or does God pull the strings
so what does it mean
to live life and give love
if we're all just a part
of some scheme

You are water in my lungs
the aching poison in my blood
You are scars I cannot read

It's time that I let go

I don't need you in my life
all these fights
the senseless pride
what's to show
for the time that we spent
so who are we fighting for
again?
