Survive - Fixation

We’ve heard it before, way too many times

Why can’t we seem to understand it?

«It's all in your head, just don’t think like that

Where do your demons even come from?»

Because we treat those who are damaged

Like they are just a bunch of crooks

Does it have to bleed for you to get it?

We give them guns instead of guidance

Then wonder why our kids are killing themselves

Just scream

Just cry

Just let out what you’ve got inside

Tear off the black and let your colors bleed through

The ones who caused you this pain

Just show them who you really are

No one can take that away from you

And no one should

You can’t be you, because it’s not you they know

You hide the truth, because the truth can’t be loved

So, you wear a face to hide who you are

Because it’s better to fake a smile than to show them your scars

Just scream

Just cry

Just let out what you’ve got inside

Tear off the black and let your colors bleed through

The ones who caused you this pain

Just show them who you really are

No one can take that away from you

And no one should

You’re looking at me as I fall apart

While I’m watching you as you leave

You rip me apart and then leave me to bleed

And the blood that runs out will stain

But trust me, I would do it all again

No one can take that away from you

And no one should

No one can take that away from you

And no one should

The ones who caused you this pain

Just show them who you really are

No one can take that away from you

Just scream ‘til there’s nothing left

And burn the mask that you possess

Don’t let their hate destroy you
