How do I hold my head above
The waterlinewhen I'm constantly pulled down
After all these years torn away from what is mine
I can't escape this pain inside of me
I can't escape this pain inside of me
The tragedy is me
Crying out my eyes, left to feel this pain
Your guilt and blame
Nothing left inside
For what it's worth, I'm erasing you
How do you justify the things that you have done
My scars, they burn
As the ashes settle in, did you think you'd won?
You won't escape this pain inside of you
You can't escape the pain inside yourself
The tragedy is you
Crying out my eyes, left to feel this pain
Your guilt and blame
Nothing left inside
For what it's worth, I'm erasing you
If you would burn, I'd pour more fuel on the fire
If you were drowning, I'd push you further down
Crying out my eyes, left to feel this pain
Your guilt and blame
Nothing left inside
For what it's worth, I'm erasing you
You will feel my pain, got yourself to blame
Nothing left inside
For what it's worth, I'm erasing you
