Lose Yourself Lyrics
They say it's hard to fall in love
Maybe they never learned how to patiently wait
They say it's always dark before the dawn
But you walked away before the dawn could break
So who's really right in the end?
When you tore down the walls but I'm the one alone in this bed?
As you feel his hands around your waste, I can feel them around my neck
God, this complacency has numbed me
And this numbing has scared me back into the deep
I'm slowly learning how to learn from something
And realizing the only thing worse than feeling pain is feeling nothing
There is an intoxication in her smile and it went straight to my head
Without it, I can't see past these blurred lines that I've always been fed
And sometimes I wonder, maybe my chest cavity is growing bigger or maybe my heart is just shrinking
Either way we decorate this ship, it's still sinking
And I always had love to blame, and I always had love to blame
I don't want to wake up, I don't want to wake up
'Cause I'm trying, just trying to find the light inside
So roll this stone away, I don't want to sleep another day
I just want to be in your presence, so please let me fade away
They say it's hard to fall in love
Maybe they never learned how to patiently wait
They say it's always dark before the dawn
But you walked away before the dawn could break
So who's really right in the end?
When you tore down the walls but I'm the one alone in this bed?
As you feel his hands around your waste, I can feel them around my neck
God, this complacency has numbed me
And this numbing has scared me back into the deep
I'm slowly learning how to learn from something
And realizing the only thing worse than feeling pain is feeling nothing
There is an intoxication in her smile and it went straight to my head
Without it, I can't see past these blurred lines that I've always been fed
And sometimes I wonder, maybe my chest cavity is growing bigger or maybe my heart is just shrinking
Either way we decorate this ship, it's still sinking
And I always had love to blame, and I always had love to blame
As I try to find my way, I feel this pain and I had love to blame, I had love to blame
If I were to believe in love, I would have to see a flood
But knowing my luck I would somehow float to shore and have to wake up
If I were to believe in love, I would have to see a flood
But knowing my luck I would somehow float to shore and have to wake up
I don't want to wake up, I don't want to wake up
'Cause I'm trying, just trying to find the light inside
So roll this stone away, I don't want to sleep another day
I just want to be in your presence, so please let me fade away
