about

Recovery doesn't just happen, it's a decision.

lyrics

It's a long long rope, and I'm at the end
Pulling and tugging, trying to move forward again

You're pressing on my lungs, and I'm taking the blame
For hurting myself in the most unconventional ways

And there are days I find it hard to stand
But I am done saying I can't
I will make new friends and you're gonna be missing
I will take new pictures and make sure you're not in them
And I'll get better cause I promised that I would
You hurt me more than you should

I'm a little off, I try to pretend
Fake it until all, my thoughts come out normal again

Scrubbing at my skin, trying to get clean
I still feel you on me in ways that nobody can see

And there are days I find it hard to stand
But I am done saying I can't
I will make new friends and you're gonna be missing
I will take new pictures and make sure you're not in them
And I'll get better cause I promised that I would
You hurt me more than you should

I'm in knots, tangled up
I'd have fought til I spilled my guts

I will take it easy
Til nothing's pulling at me

And I will make new friends and you're gonna be missing
I will take new pictures and make sure you're not in them
One day the thought of you won't make me sick to the core
You won't hurt me anymore
You won't hurt me anymore
