Part of me won’t go away Everyday reminded how much I hate it Weighted against consequences Can’t live without it so it’s senseless Wanna cut it out of my soul And live with a gaping hole Take control of my life And wash out all the burnt taste I made the problems in the first place Hang my head low ‘cause it’s part of me Ya hardly see right next to the heart of me Heard of me the routine scar New cuts cover where the old ones are And now I’m of this I can’t stand the sandpaper thoughts that grade on my sanity I rather not even be then the that’s staring in the mirror through me
[Pre chorus] Cut myself free willingly Stop just what’s killing me [x4]
I feel it everyday I feel I my way I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside Swallowing me
Freedom can be frightening if you've never felt it Once it’s been dealt with you feel like you’ve been touched by something angelic And then melted down into a pool peace Cease to be the animal you used to be Remove the broken parts you know were wrong And feel the karma when the problem’s all gone And then you start to see another piece of yourself that you can’t let be Memories of the last fight to free yourself Take to the depths of the bottom of the well And now you know you can choose to lose the part in your heart Where your insides bruised You can live you’re willing to Put a stop to just what’s killing you
[Pre chorus x4]
[Chorus]
(Alive in me, inside of me, a part of me screams away This part of me won’t go away, part of me won’t go away Everywhere I look around I see how everyone to be Every time I see myself I see there’s always something wrong with me)
[Chorus x2] I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me [x2]
