I Feel Myself Slipping

Why do I Push myself away? Can I get up and change? So many years spent Spent isolated and lost Every time I look back I find myself slipping Over and over A vicious cycle I run Every time I look back On all my mistakes Its fears and regrets That are crippling me But I Won't stand idly by Pretentious and derived From all I idolize I hold my own light I hold my own light In the grips of fear I built a home in the midst of tears No matter how far I come The ground gives way to jagged rocks Now I might lose everything I'll send my past out to sea Let the tide take my body Let it carry me Every time I look back I find myself slipping Over and over A vicious cycle I run Every time I look back On all my mistakes Its fears and regrets That are crippling me I feel myself Slipping I feel myself Slipping How can I live with myself?
