In the Flesh

I've tried to stop
Feeding my sadness
But it asks for more

I've tried to feel alive
I swear I've tried
But instead, I'm dead for sure

I feel dead, so passionately
So cold, so slow

I constantly feel this way
I don't seem to fit in this mess, or am I the mess?

Misery loves my company
Loneliness is in love with me
I know there must be better days ahead
But they never seem to come

I tried my best
But I failed
It was not enough
It was not enough

The demons are approaching near
And it seems I'm drowning on my fears

I'm out of breath
There's nothing left inside my chest
I'm out of luck, I'm on my own
No one can help me save myself

And if I could set the clocks back
I wouldn't mind it, never think twice about it
Because what's the point? a life of regret
There's no reason to be proud of it

I tried my best
But I failed
It was not enough
It was not enough

I tried my best
But I failed
It was not enough
It was not enough

I am not enough
And this hurts in my flesh
