Just a little something I wrote

You say you don't want
to be the man you were before
But how can you change
when you cling to the memories like a lifeline?
You tell me i'm the only one
who can save you,
bring you back from this darkness
But I haven't seen anything
but the person you hate
Because,,,

You trap yourself in yesterday
Running your tongue over your mistakes
Your eyes roll back into your head
You have no future cause you're already dead

I've tried using my words
but you're like a closed door
someone locked you up
and threw away the key so I can't see if
there's anything else,
someone hiding in the depths
of the threats and insecurities
you've buried yourself under

You trap yourself in yesterday
Running your tongue over your mistakes
your eyes roll back into your head
You have no future cause you're already dead

You finally let me in
But you're not there
It's like trying to catch wind
Trying to see its colors
But there's nothing there

Because you've trapped yourself in yesterday
Running your tongue over your mistakes
your eyes roll back into your head
You have no future cause you're already dead
