lyrics

(With a lineage of absence.)
I swore it wouldn’t be like this.
(Quit passing the blame, just man up and do something about it.)
If I constantly falter,
(Don’t be like the others.)
Why put in the effort, I’ll just end up pushing them away.

I’d like to think that I’ve been something more than a figment
of your memory but I’d be lying, if I didn’t admit:

No doubt I’ve let you down, just look to somebody else.
I’m just a broken record collecting dust on the shelf.
I’ll brush myself off and work harder.
Quit skipping out on what matters.
x2

Who am I?
I guess you wouldn’t really know.
It’s my fault,
leaving before we could grow.
My blood, my kin.
I live fine, on the outside,
but truly there’s a struggle within.

What I have and haven’t has been my biggest regret.
Ups and downs, smiles and frowns; just ask me where I have been.
This song plays on and on as the needle starts to dig.

I’d like to think that I’ve been, something more than a figment
of your memory but I’d be lying if I didn’t admit,
And I swear, that I could never admit.

I'm stuck on repeat, I keep on, doing all of these things,
No doubt, I’ve let you down, but,

I'm stuck on repeat, I keep on doing all of these things,
No doubt, I’ve let you down, but now I can see, that I’m
Stuck on repeat, I keep on doing these things.
No doubt I’ve let you down, but now I can see that I’m gone.

But i'm Stuck on repeat, I keep on doing these things,
No doubt I've let you down, and now I can see,
I'm stuck on repeat, I keep on doing these things,
A carbon copy of what I never wanted to be.
