Lyrics

You know, right now I miss someone that I love Or fell in love with I don't wanna cry or nothing but I'mma just get straight to the story I'm a 29 year old addict What would you know? What would you do? If you had no control over what you pursue? Talk yourself, tell yourself, baby "I'm better than this" All that I'm fighting I'm the one to resist So I persist Like a bottomless kiss An illusion of bliss An illusion of bliss So I persist Like a bottomless kiss An iIllusion of bliss An iIllusion of bliss Hey, living in prison of blood and flesh An easy way out is this high, I confess So watcha lookin' at What do you wanna see You can't save me, baby I don't wanna it no way So I persist Like a bottomless kiss An illusion of bliss An illusion of bliss So I persist Like a bottomless kiss An illusion of bliss Is it my life? Ain't no easy road I don't know which way to go Won't somebody see me when I can't see myself Won't somebody listen before I need help I'm sick of being judged I'm sing of being sick Sick of being high, sick of being low Sick of all the lies putting on the show So I persist So I persist Like a bottomless kiss An illusion of bliss An illusion of bliss I don't wanna be a fallen angel I don't wanna be a fallen angel Don't say I'm gone, gone I don't wanna be a fallen angel Don't say I'm lost, lost I don't wanna be a fallen angel Don't say I'm gone, gone I don't wanna be a fallen angel Don't say I'm lost, lost I don't wanna be a fallen angel
