Dead Weight Lyrics by Better Than Never

Homemade Hero

0

Verse 1:
I've been thinking about saying it's over
When I know that I can't find time
To make things work
These days they hurt
When I waste my hours away afraid of going outside and I know
I wake up every single day feeling older
As the seconds they pass me by
Tonight I'll walk
Away from all that I can't find
(And I just can't find time to make it
How could I know
I never had time to make time for you
And I'm thinking I'm ready
I hold myself steady
Feeling that I can't find)
Chorus:
And I didn't want this
To be perfectly honest
All of this pain is so real to me
I can't find a day now
Where I'm not keeping my head down
All this time it tears me up
And I know
And I know
As my world turns bleak and paler
And I know
And I know
I'll always be a complete failure
Verse 2:
I can't find the strength to pull me out of this hole
It keeps dragging me down a familiar road
Where I'm livid
I'm hating
I'm screaming
Debating
Wish I could turn back years
Save me from myself I hate this
I can't keep this up for one more day
I can't take back the things I say
Chorus:
And I didn't want this
To be perfectly honest
All of this pain is so real to me
I can't find a day now
Where I'm not keeping my head down
All this time it tears me up
And I know
And I know
As my world turns bleak and paler
And I know
And I know
I'll always be a complete failure
Middle 8:
Don't know how I keep this standing up
My world it falls and I can't stop
It's always getting to that point where
The worst of me's the best that I expect
Don't know why I can't stop giving up
I guess these days I've had enough
It's always getting to that point where
The worst of me's the best that I expect
Chorus:
And I didn't want this
To be perfectly honest
All of this pain is so real to me
I can't find a day now
Where I'm not keeping my head down
All this time it tears me up
And I didn't want this
To be perfectly honest
All of this pain is so real to me
I can't find a day now
Where I'm not keeping my head down
All this time it tears me up
And I know
And I know
As my world turns bleak and paler
And I know
And I know
I'll always be a complete failure
And I know
I'll always be a complete failure
And I know
I'll always be a complete failure
And I know, and I know, and I know
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know
