Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It never goes away, I'm always looking back
Am I ever gonna change, ever gonna change, change my past?
[Verse 2]
Feelin' a type of way 'bout the past that I run from
Night and day fade to black when I'm undone
I feel lost, constantly exhausted, double crossed
Still haunted by the monster I once was
And when the sun's gone and there's no escape
I feel the darkness take shape and show face
There's no place, I never feel safe
There's no change, hope fades and I'll never be okay
[Verse 3]
Never be the same but I'll always feel close to
Losin' everything, it's almost like I'm supposed to
I chose you, let you in and gave you a home to
Become a part of me but now I'm lookin' to ghost you
I hoped you'd disappear but you're attached
I painted the mirror, I tried breakin' the glass
I see my face in the cracks, a refraction, I'm abstract
Can't run from the past but I'm keepin' my bags packed
[Verse 4]
It never goes away, I'm always looking back
Am I ever gonna change, ever gonna change, change my past?
I'll never be okay, I'm seconds from collapse
Am I ever gonna change, ever gonna change, change my past?
[Verse 5]
Gone is the vessel, now there's nothing inside  me
And God and the Devil are the voices behind me
But they lie, designin' blue skies
While they guide to me a pasture where nobody will find me
Down a road that I'm hopin' to steer through
To a home I thought I left in the rearview
To a weird room, nothing to peer through
Doors shut, curtains drawn, nobody can hear you
[Verse 6]
All this time I been holdin' myself hostage
My hands tied and a blindfolded conscience
Brainwashed and overly cautious
I'm talkin' to myself in the cell that we're locked in
A situation, I'm dyin' for some relief
Negotiatin' the terms for my release
I find keys to set myself free then history repeats
Nothing can save me
[Verse 7]
It never goes away, I'm always looking back
Am I ever gonna change, ever gonna change, change my past?
I'll never be okay, I'm seconds from collapse
Am I ever gonna change, ever gonna change, change my past?
[Verse 8]
And I would be nothing without you
And all that you made me (And all that you made me)
And I would be nothing without you
And how you destroy me (You always destroy me)
[Verse 9]
It never goes away, I'm always looking back
Am I ever gonna change, ever gonna change, change my past?
I'll never be okay, I'm seconds from collapse
Am I ever gonna change, ever gonna change, change my past?
