Lyrics:

Chorus

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

1st Verse

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming/confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never-ending
Controlling/I can't seem

Pre-Chorus

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
[Without a sense of confidense and I'm convinced
That there's just to much pressure to take]
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Chorus

2nd Verse

Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting/reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

Well that's it for this song. Keep on rockin'!!!
