I don't know who to blame

Was it the man in the mask or the fool in its place?

Parading around like a wolf in sheep's clothing

Never needed your love until I got lonely

I could never be the things you wanted

Head down looking up to a broken promise

Aiming blindly at a moving target

Held up once again because I lost my focus

Hurricane season has start to slow

Trying times will soon come to close

The dead end behind us still up in smoke

Only from ashes will true colors show

And I know that I was supposed to look away

(Look away, look away)

Hate always has to take the best of me

Stagnant but ever present

The truth comes out on canvas

Never felt so disconnected

Feeling low, the wrong perspective

I'm an optimist in a losing fight

When we're pulling on the same rope

Will you loosen your grip?

If you knew me

Could you love me?

I can't think straight

We keep stumbling

We keep stumbling

Wait, don't look down

At the peak of my game

In the lost and found

And I know that I was supposed to look away

(Look away, look away)

Hate always has to take the best of me

Stagnant but ever present

The truth comes out on canvas

Never felt so disconnected

Feeling low, the wrong perspective

I'm an optimist in a losing fight

When we're pulling on the same rope

How do you think you know me

When you can't even take the time?

Do you stay up for hours knowing

That you gave up your peace of mind?

How do you think you know me

When you can't even take the time?

Do you stay up for hours knowing

That you gave up your peace of mind?

Never felt so disconnected

Feeling low, the wrong perspective

I'm an optimist in a losing fight

When we're pulling on the same rope
