Story behind the song
This song was written for anybody who feels like an outcast for being them self
Lyrics
I've seen what the world can look like,
Black night, seen the struggle take pure life's,
Nobody can ever see it nearing, when you're running through
The world in fear of disappearing,
I try to make sense but I feel I don't know what,
It takes to be the proper grown up, thrown up in the mix,
Your shape-shifts, the same shtick that made you so sick,
I'm nothing but a nonconformist, stuck in a storm,
Saying Bob is dormant,
I found freedom in writing words,
No more fighting crowds, walking wires across the Earth,
Trying to be like the rest of this train wreck,
Paycheck is just earned to pay debts,
The same threat that you felt in the old days,
Old ways got you stuck in a cold haze,
No way I can bare the climate,
I'm stuck in the rain in my own environment,
But the beast in my eyes seems to feast on my mind,
It leaves me to die in the midst of a good time,
I guess I'm just a human being,
When I walk through the clouds and get lost in a dream,
I guess I'm just a normal guy,
Walk a path to the sky, never leave you behind,
I know what the world is like now,
Bite down on your teeth until they break down,
The sun is a mural they gave you to smile,
Something to live for in the eyes of a child,
Nothing but love in our hearts but its thrown out,
One's own doubt, en route of a ghost town,
I'm standing in the wreckage deafened,
By the sound of my past being shattered each second,
I was six years old when I learned what death is,
Strike up a conversation and start burning friendships,
Like the tip of a wick, I tried to be humble,
Tried to be true to myself but it crumbled,
Tried to be like you, but now I refuse,
The truth isn't used its just lost in abuse,
Abuse is a hard road, followed by hard trails,
Sometimes your love dies, sometimes your heart fails,
Other times we come out unscathed with some scabs,
But I'll drain the blood and bathe in the past,
Just to soak up whats left of my youth,
At the end of the day I'm as human as you.
