Runt (lyrics)

My birth name makes me sick,

But the one I borrowed was built on lies,

And no matter how hard I try

It will never be enough.

 

Why do you push me? I...

Years go by and I'm not better.

I know I let you down but I...

The more I try the more I wither.

I'd kill to see pride in your eyes...

Mine are wet and I feel weathered.

Why do you want to hide...me?

Years go by and wounds aren't better.

 

And I'm cold, and I'm sick,

But it's still my fault because I'm small,

And it's out of my control

Because I'll never be that tough.

 

Why do make me cry...? (I try so hard but I'm not getting better)

Could you be why I'm not better?

I let you down all the time...

Because if I'd try I'd be a failure.

I'd kill to go back to a time...when I... (I try so hard but I'm not getting better)

Thought happily ever after.

How can I prove that I....

If you have faith I might get

Better.

 

But oh, all the pain goes away (but all my pain will go away)

So they say (so they say)

But one day things will change (but today I'll change)

Now I try to hide all my pain (I'll be what you want me to be)

Is that insane? (Everything)

For I, all I do is cry (all I am is broken)

(Inside)
