"No, I don't think you could do any better"
would have been a simple way to put it
but it's not honesty that I'm afraid of anymore
Cuz things have been slowly getting closer to the point
where it's a lot harder to care
and even easier to just throw away
all the second chances for the
little happy dances with fate
SCREW the fine print
Bring the hate
Sure, I'll pay for it later
but living down debts and choking on precedent
are nothing new to me
So it shouldn't be that hard
to survive going down the drain
when I've been getting comfortable
running down dark tunnels with no light at the end

Yeah, it's true; I've been wrong before
But being an attention whoring fashion fake
doesn't seem to have led
to a bigger mistake... yet
What's the difference anyways?
Splattering some paint on the picture
and calling it a new image
seems to have become my favorite past time as of late
And I know
the patience and pestilence may not pay off
But I'm still gonna ride in the wake of this newfound strength
to live it up and get what I can take from this anomaly
Before it's too late and you've screwed it all up
What's that?
Yep, I've given in to a few facts as well:

"Been lookin for somethin that ain't here"
I can't handle it
Everything's become too much
The pressure, the future, the responsibility
I'm overwhelmed in its intensity
The world seems callous, life's gone too far
My mistakes burn always as my scars
I can't face the next step
It's hard to take the next breath
I feel I must hide from it all
Safe inside, blind from my fall
In my one escape
In the sweetest respite I can find
When I'm on the edge of defeat and all has gone bleak
It saves me from myself, it's what I use to speak
When it's so raw I can hardly see through the tears
The melody is simple, and calms my fears
I lose myself in its fluid flow

Into The Clear
I've finally done it - struggled free
Pushed those feelings - far from me
Opened eyes show what I couldn't see
Reclaimed ground, no more mystery
The water's calm, the storm's been stilled
Only a light breeze, and the sunlight's chill

Couldn't get it out - couldn't set things straight
Swallowed all that venom - clouded my fate
But now the trial's over - I've gotten it out
Finally learned to let go (for a while) - to defeat this foe
Choked o
