Lift myself up off the pavement

My hopes are growing jaded and I'm struggling to save 'em

I hate that I'm complacent with the strain that I've been facing

Tension pulling at my insides, they're tied up like some laces

Vision blurred when I see familiar faces

Knowing that the man you loved is not the man that you're embracing

It's an understatement when I say I'm changing

These clouds just keep on raining, my power keeps on draining

I had to burn these broken thoughts to reach my renaissance

Bobbing and weaving side to side as I bear a cross

The cycle, it continues, my love, I leave it with you

I set it on your nightstand next to the box of tissues
