I try to be good, but I know
I’m just bad and ugly
I try to keep my friends close
But I’m just so sad and lowly
I try to be good, but I know
My mind it takes me places
I try to be here for you
But I’m so sick of what I’ve become
You’re too close to see
All the darkness within me
You’re too close to see the bad side
You’re too close to see all the darkness
So I’ll let regret fill my bones
And I will sink just like a stone
And I’ll wade into the quiet of the stream
Cause there’s no hope for someone like me
I can’t remember when
I lost sight of everything
But every time you smile
My heart still stops for a while
You’re too close to see
All the darkness within me
You’re too close to see the bad side
You’re too close to see all the darkness
So I’ll let regret fills my bones
And I will sink just like a stone
And I’ll wade into the quiet of the stream
Cause there’s no hope for someone like me
If there’s no hope for me
Then what do my kids have to look forward to
If there’s no hope for me
Then are you better off alone
So I’ll let regret fills my bones
And I will sink just like a stone
And I’ll wade into the quiet of the stream
Cause there’s no hope for someone like me
No there’s no hope for someone like me
