So Long To Yesterday

Reflections show the same face
It feels like I am running in place
A crooked smile isn't all worthwhile
When it's all I have the strength to keep
I can't act like I'm okay
Cause everyday I hesitate
To take that step
With nothing left
Is there another way

I keep burning up pages
To write a new chapter where the pain lives
When blood becomes the ink inside my mind

I'm being my own savior
Greater than my failures
I'm sitting here alone
I'm losing my composure
It can't be over
When I say it's okay
Gotta take it on faith
So long, so long to yesterday

So long to the days I've missed
I'm moving towards bitter emptiness
Always fighting the shadow
Inside my head that needs to exist

The memories hold the same weight
Even if I'm not really the same
A broken mind can heal in time
But I'll try to learn what the pain can teach

I keep burning up pages
To write a new chapter where the pain lives
When blood becomes the ink inside my mind

I'm being my own savior
Greater than my failures
I'm sitting here alone
I'm losing my composure
It can't be over
When I say it's okay
Gotta take it on faith
So long, so long to yesterday

I'm trying to learn how to live again
Even if there's more pain waiting at the end
A broken hand, a broken man
Never the same yet here I stand
I'll breathe in, so I can breathe out
Just another breath taken
Till hope replaces doubt
I'll breathe in, so I can breathe out again
This pain will never win
It can never fucking win

I'm being my own savior
Greater than my failures
I'm sitting here alone
I'm losing my composure
It can't be over
When I say it's okay
Gotta take it on faith
So long, so long to yesterday

I'm being my own savior
Greater than my failures
When I say it's okay
Gotta take it on faith
So long, so long to yesterday
