(Verse 1)

I scream bloody bruises, tangling my hair

I’ve got one on each side of me neither do care

They are watching me close

So I don’t lose the host

They are feeding.

They want me to keep myself alive

Because if I die then they too will all die

They want to hold me down

In the water I drown

‘Til I’m bleeding.

(Chorus)

I’m scared but I’m moving on

‘Cause I

I have to.

I’m scared but I’m moving on

‘Cause I

I have to

I have to live.

(Verse 2)

I am fine, give me time to outline

Everything in my life that I can’t seem to find

I will give it all up

Just for all of the fucks

I’ve given.

You can’t destroy me, you should know very well

That I live and I breathe just to live in your hell

You can’t run, you can’t hide

Your whole story’s a lie

And people who say they’re crazy really aren’t, you’re are so fucked up my guy.

(Chorus)

I’m scared but I’m moving on

‘Cause I

I have to.

I’m scared but I’m moving on

‘Cause I

I have to

I have to live.

(Bridge)

Your screeching sounds

Won’t get me down

I see it now

See the way out.

(Chorus)

I’m scared but I’m moving on

‘Cause I

I have to.

I’m scared but I’m moving on

‘Cause I

I have to

I have to live.
