Part of me won't go away
Every day reminded how much I hate it
Weighted against the consequences
Can't live without it, so it's senseless
Wanna cut out of my soul and just live with a gaping hole
Take control of my life and wash out all the burnt taste
I made the problems in the first place
Hang my head low, 'cause it's part of me
You'll hardly see, right next to the heart of me
Hurting me, the routine scar
New cuts cover where the old ones are
So tired of making the same mistakes again and again
The suffering just won't end
And I can't let myself be
The man that's staring in the mirror through me
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
I feel it every day
I feel I'm in my way
I feel it swell up inside
Swell up inside, swallowing me
(Freedom can be frightening if you've never felt it)
Once it's been dealt with
You feel like you've been touched by something angelic
And then melt it down into a pool of peace
Cease to be the animal you used to be
Remove the broken parts you know were wrong
And feel the calm when the problem's all gone
And then you start to see
Another piece of yourself that you can't let be
Memories of the last fight to free yourself
Take you to the depths at the bottom of the well
And then you know that you can choose to lose
The part of your heart where your inside's bruised
You can live if you're willing to
Put a stop to just what's killing you
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
Cut myself free
Willingly stop just what's killing me
I feel it every day
I feel I'm in my way
I feel it swell up inside
Swell up inside, swallowing me
Alive in me, inside of me
A part turns grey and rocks away silently
Alive in me, inside of me
A part turns grey and rocks away silently
(This part of me won't go away)
Alive in me, inside of me
A part turns grey and rocks away silently
(Part of me won't go away)
Alive in me, inside of me
A part turns grey and rocks away silently
I feel it every day
I feel I'm in my way
I feel it swell up inside
Swell up inside, swallowing me
I feel it every day
I feel I'm in my way
I feel it swell up inside
Swell up inside, swallowing me
I feel it every day
I feel I'm in my way
I feel it swell up inside
Swell up inside, swallowing me
