Anyone But Me

(album: You Will Not Be Saved - 2019)

Everyone who needs a vice swears they don't need advice
Don't we breathe the same air, don't we bleed alike
Are we so blinded by our views that we don't see the light?
We never know when we should give up, but we need to fight
How you going numb, put on a front while laying on your back?
You show your face a little more when you put on your mask
I get the message way before you're ever calling back
And you'd be lying if you said this wasn't all the facts

I been living on my own
Seen everything except a home
Don't ask me why I feel alone
When I hold up my guard because
I can't fall, I've had to find a way to stand tall
Become a man, I never can call
On anyone but me
Won't let you see me [?]

That's why I fucking can't fall
I have had to find a way to stand tall
Become a man, I never can call
On anyone but me
On anyone but me

Killing myself every night
While you reaping the benefits that you've been lucky to get
Shit has been stuck in my head
Not even suffering yet
But it's fucking intense
It's 5, and I haven't jumped up outta bed
No crutch when I step, I gotta wake up and gain nothing again
I know everybody wanna be here
That should brighten me up, but...
Every day its literally clear how theyre hyping me up
I gotta run
I gotta fight when they come
I got a life to keep up
I gotta swing
I gotta be the one [?], and my hands, you the type to see shots and then duck

I been living on my own
Seen everything except a home
Don't ask me what I feel alone
When I hold up my guard because
I can't fall, I've had to find a way to stand tall
Become a man I never can call
On anyone but me
Won't let you see me [?]

That's why I fucking can't fall
I have had to find a way to stand tall
Become a man I never can call
On anyone but me
On anyone but me, no

Said: "Fuck my feelings, let's pretend"
I guess all good we know its dead
A start always comes to an end
But, I can't let it end, hey, hey
I got too many that depend on me
If it's you or them, then I ain't got no friends homie
In my way I promise you gon' see the errors on me
I felt scared, wishful thinking but you [?]

That's why I fucking can't fall
I have had to find a way to stand tall
Become a man I never can call
On anyone but me
On anyone but me, no
