Senses Fail - Ali For Cody

I`m giving up all expectations
That I will live a meaningful life
I once was filled with inspiration
That lion heart has lost his pride
I am not the person that I thought that I would be
I keep tripping over the same steps
The stars aren`t beautiful
Advice is never useful
And I still walk the line held tight with my regrets
I`d rather die than live like this
I`ve gotta give up giving in
Some people never will go crazy,
What horrible lives they must lead
I`m going to try and paint new scenery
And build a window to help me see
I am not the person that I thought that I would be
I keep tripping over the same steps
The stars aren`t beautiful
Advice is never useful
And I still walk the line held tight with my regrets
I`d rather die than live like this
I`ve gotta give up giving in
I have got my eyelids stapled shut
I have failed but I`m used to it
The past is just that
It`s a sunken old ship
There will be moments
I pretend
That I can raise it up
Up back from the depths
Who the fuck am I kidding?
I was born with the curse of always giving in
Every day is another chance
To make peace with myself
But I would rather play dead
Sure it looks easy when it`s through borrowed eyes
The hero has a thousand faces", none of them matching mine
Fuck the world, fuck the stars, fuck the person you are
None of this will matter if I don`t give up folding my cards
I keep tripping over the same steps
The stars aren`t beautiful
Advice is never useful
And I still walk the line held tight with my regrets
I`d rather die than live like this
I`ve gotta give up giving in
I have got my eyelids stapled shut
