Scavenger

Let's recollect

I've been falling off track

I've been telling you my problems

Now tell me yours back

Are they on the tip of your tongue?

You're gonna bite them clean off?

Trust me, I know how much it hurts

You've got your stomach in a knot

It's my flaws I look at through the half-full glass

They remind me of how I still live in the past

If happiness comes in waves

Let me drown in its undertow

Cleanse back my innocence

Let it pull me below

Our time here is fleeting

I can't find the meaning

So what happens when we're dead and gone?

Nothing at all

I'm a wreck, I'm a nameless face

I'm an unimportant man that always gets misplaced

How the hell am I supposed to pretend I'm alright?

This spinning room from an impending doom

I'll go out quiet in the night

So will I die today?

Will I drown in the undertow?

Cleanse back my innocence, let it pull me below

Our time here is fleeting, l can't find the meaning

So what happens when we're dead and gone?

Nothing at all

Do you think I'll ever find them?

The reasons why I'm like this?

I could point and blame at empty promises

Or the broken home I'm lost in

Just make me feel like a person again

To love myself and make amends

I'd purge the grief that I buried down deep

But I can't forget the sorrows I've kept with me

Such a lost cause, God damn, I miss who I once was

I'll plead when I leave, to tell my family sorry
