SAVE YOURSELF (feat. Connor Reibling) Lyrics

Words drop like icicles through my skin
Breaking away at my skeleton
And everyone has to pretend to be tough
Living through the life of hard knocks, they can't get enough

And since we've become numb to the indoctrination
We've become too aggressive with our expectations

Since when were we only meant to see the glass as half empty
When we'd rather see it half full?

Fuck you, pessimist
Fuck you, pessimist

Let down by the weight of everyone's judgment
You can feel it crushing down on your spirit

Painted in an optical illusion
We seek past the lifespan of our peers
Retribution guided retaliation
Met by a world of contempt, it draws out our fears

Lest we stand in opposition
Confronting the contaminated
Stung by the knife of our lies
Our wounds may be full but we still know that we will rise

People have their problems but they know that we will never be the one
To satisfy the hunger of the misguided feelings that some of them
Decide to vent onto the world for the rest of us to deal with
We will never be caught with that shit, no, we'll never be caught with that shit

I can't save you, only you can save yourself
I can't save you, only you can save yourself
I can't save you, only you can save yourself
I can't save you, only you can save yourself

Painted in an optical illusion
We seek past the lifespan of our peers
Retribution guided retaliation
Met by a world of contempt, it draws out our fears

Lest we stand in opposition
Confronting the contaminated
Stung by the knife of our lies
Our wounds may be full but we still know that we will rise
