Prompt / Lyrics
i am not who i was. When we first met . Before I hit rock bottom. Be fore I dug my grave. Wasted away in this garden. risen from the soil of the grave that almost got me. some parts made it. most didn't. i'1l never be that me again. [Pre Chorus] they clapped for the mask. no one noticed. i learned to act so I wouldn't expose it. i wore their version of normal like a costume that never fit. I wish I could give you my pain for just a moment. [Chorus] Not to hurt you, but so you could finally understand how you hurt me. I've slept with monsters. But you were more then that. i don't want to go back, but my shadows do. feeling nothing was easier then being around you. "Loving you taught me what it is like to be dead while still breathing". [Verse] i've danced with many kinds of devils, but the most dangerous one was you. loving you didn't rewrite me. it erased me, piece by piece, until i vanished inside of you. If you wanted to get rid of me should of just told me the truth. i burned you. you broke me, too. & we both called it love because pain was the only language we ever spoke of. [Pre Chorus] they clapped for the mask. no one noticed. i learned to act so I wouldn't expose it. i wore their version of normal like a costume that never fit. I wish I could give you my pain for just a moment. [Chorus] Not to hurt you, but so you could finally understand how you hurt me. I've slept with monsters. But you were more then that. i don't want to go back, but my shadows do. feeling nothing was easier then being around you. "Loving you taught me what it is like to be dead while still breathing". [Bridge] Stay away from people who act like a victim in a problem they created. You weren't just my heartbreak . You were the lesson that hurt the most. In order to love who you are, you cannot hate the experiences that shaped you." [Pre Chorus] they clapped for the mask. no one noticed. i learned to act so I wouldn't expose it. i wore their version of normal like a costume that never fit. I wish I could give you my pain for just a moment. [Chorus] Not to hurt you, but so you could finally understand how you hurt me. I've slept with monsters. But you were more then that. i don't want to go back, but my shadows do. feeling nothing was easier then being around you. "Loving you taught me what it is like to be dead while still breathing". [Outro]
