| Everybody wants a reason for everything. | |
| It's so much easier with | |
| Someone or something to blame. | |
| I've always struggled at the | |
| Root of the problem. | |
| Has it been absence or my constant lack of | |
| Defense? | |
| I've never spent a lot on finding a remedy. | |
| I guess I figured that it hurt for a reason. | |
| I guess That's why | |
| I've always | |
| Turned to writing it down. | |
| Not just in stories, but the letters in between. | |
| And I guess that's why it haunts the pages of everything—to | |
| Self-examine. | |
| I think the thing is that | |
| I shut off from | |
| Everything. | |
| From friends and family and my own ambitions. | |
| From having fun. | |
| I just shut off from everything. | |
| Self-defeating? | |
| Yeah, probably. | |
| But I Don't know that | |
| I had total control over it. | |
| And I'm not sure it even | |
| Matters why. | |
| Sometimes things | |
| Happen and you can't do anything. | |
| Plus, I'm | |
| The only one who deals with it anyway. | |
| So if everyone could do me a favor | |
| And just put their fingers down | |
| I'd—and keep your | |
| Mouths— Sorry. | |
| I know I seem angry. | |
| I'm not, I... | |
| I promise. | |
| I Just know | |
| I did this to me. | |
| And I will deal with it accordingly. | |
| And I Don't need opinions from those never a part of it. | |
| Don't need them pointing | |
| Out my problems, they're mine. | |
| Don't need reminders | |
| I know better than | |
| Anyone. | |
| And yeah, | |
| I know, I should be finding another way. | |
| I Know that | |
| I should be out seeking a | |
| Substitute. | |
| But just forgetting never | |
| Really made sense to me. | |
| So I haven't been. | |
| Do I feel embarrassed about it? | |
| I think you know the answer to that. | |
| I think You'd probably feel a | |
| Little bit embarrassed for me, wouldn't you? | |
| I know I should've moved on ages ago, been happy already, but | |
| It's never been that easy for me. | |
| Or maybe it was me that made it so hard. | |
| I know I've only ever tried a handful of times to sever this | |
| Thing torturing me. | |
| It never got me anywhere, with anyone. | |
| No friendship or | |
| Hobby, no lover's bed worked. | |
| But looking back | |
| I Maybe never tried hard | |
| Enough, and it is my fault. | |
| Maybe I never tried at all. |
