(I need you now more than ever but I know it's not what's best for me)
You're overrated, I would say,
You were not what I thought you would be in the end,
I know that I am better than that and you are better than this,
I know my heart will not lie to me anymore, now where do you stand.
This cancer will no longer be apart of who I am,
And when it all caves in, they will see
The blood of the innocent trickling, yeah!!
One day you will pay for the sins you commit,
You fucking traitor, you were meant to spit your shit,
Day after day, as I bend and break to reclaim
All the progress we've made,
You hang your head in shame
Oh I look to you now,
To the sky up above,
For all my hopes and dreams but,
Now my time is running out.
(Now I will not be the one that you run to)
(I need you now more than ever but I know it's not what's best for me)
You're overrated, I would say,
You were not what I thought you would be in the end,
I know that I am better than that and you are better than this,
I know my heart will not lie to me anymore, now where do you stand.
And in the end, I will stand at the edge of the earth,
And watch you fall to your knees,
(I won't let this consume me)
You've made your bed,
And now you lay with the wicked and the dead.
(I won't let this consume me)
I won't let this consume me
Stand and face me,
And watch the ground break beneath your feet,
Stand and face me,
You'll feel what I feel, you'll see what I see.
I remember all the thoughts of who I oughta be,
I remember all my prayers, my hopes and dreams,
Now it's all laying right down in front of me,
Shining brightly at my feet for all to see,
One way mirror, people be judging,
Expected to be compared to the world, that ain't nothin'
All they really wanna see is to watch me try to be,
Something that I wanna be,
This feeling deep inside is killing me.
(Now I will not be the one that you run to)
(I need you now more than ever but I know it's not what's best for me)
You're overrated, I would say,
You were not what I thought you would be in the end,
I know that I am better than that and you are better than this,
I know my heart will not lie to me anymore, now where do you stand.
Where do you stand, where do you stand?
When your life's in the wrong hands,
Filthy guilty, you bow down to your pride,
You turn your back on the ones that gave you life,
And now you're too weak to fight,
You turn your back on the ones that gave you life,
And now you're too weak to fight.
I need you to, I need you to.
Tear away from the seams
Look inside yourself now,
And see that you are better off
Without what you thought that you needed,
When it falls apart, pick up the pieces along the way,
Until you know that you've built yourself the way that you should be,
It goes on and on and yes I have been here with you all along,
But this choice is yours to be made,
So make it now
