Consequence

And this is what I get And this is what I get For all the times that I've tried to give up and quit And this is what I get And this is what I get For all the times that I've tried to give up and quit But I still just pretend that I've kept Every moment frozen in the shadows of my breath This is my consequence I've got a burden on my shoulders And I can't let it cross any further Into my thoughts where it shouldn't fall But it drops, then it stalls Until it crawls into my chest where it sets And eats every piece of my consciousness Until my arms and wrists buckle from all the stress I've endured within And this is what I get For all the times that I've tried to give up and quit But I still just pretend That I've kept every moment frozen in the shadows of my breath So my chest condenses every time I'm breathing in the stress It upsets me further to the point where I'm hurting And surely it'll come to the point where I explode and let go Of every emotion I bottled up into my throat And I can't even cope with the anger I'm aiming this pistol at my face Looking at the barrel in case I'm willing to waste myself in a rage And this is what I get And this is what I get For all the times that I've tried to give up and quit But I still just pretend that I've kept Every moment frozen in the shadows of my breath This is my consequence And this is what I get And this is what I get For all the times that I've tried to give up and quit But I still just pretend that I've kept Every moment frozen in the shadows of my breath This is my consequence And so I pretend that I can't give up and quit That I can't begin my life again with no regrets But I make the attempt and drown my faith in a mix of anger And maybe I'll let go of this rage that makes me angry The same thing that I feel when I'm thinking I'm too real to be sinking Cause I bullied ever cock sucker on the block And it got to the point I was good at calling the shots When it dropped into my lap and it happens so fast That the average man couldn't understand what had happen Like it slipped through my hands Cause I'm too involved to let it fall to the floor And let it go out the door Cause it means more to me than anything in the world So I sit in a curled position With everyone just ripping my ligaments out of position Cause I can't quit this life that I'm living And this is what I get And this is what I get For all the times that I've tried to give up and quit But I still just pretend that I've kept Every moment frozen in the shadows of my breath This is my consequence And this is what I get And this is what I get For all the times that I've tried to give up and quit But I still just pretend that I've kept Every moment frozen in the shadows of my breath This is my consequence
