This life starts with a heartbeat

Is it beat, beat, beat, beat, beating me down

Like the loser I am?



I can't help but to see

That success scares the living shit outta me

Like the loser I am



Every time I walk away

Every word I ever say



Restless, chasing shadows

Choices, facing gallows pole

Are you hanging by a thread

Or swinging from the rope?



Don't think we don't see your scars

Are you afraid of who you are?

Are you afraid of who you are?



Denial, a subtle burn

Is it burn, burn, burn, burn, burning me out

Or feeding the flames?



Spread out the ash, pretend to see

That you can still find some value in me

Or just feed the flames



Every time I walk away

Every word I'd ever say



Restless, chasing shadows

Choices, facing gallows pole

Are you hanging by a thread

Or swinging from the rope?



Don't think we don't see your scars

Are you afraid of who you are?



Oh my God, what am I afraid of

Success or not having what it takes?

Oh my God, I am afraid of me

And everything that brings



Restless, chasing shadows

Choices, facing gallows pole

Are you hanging by a thread

Or swinging from the rope?



Don't think we don't see your scars

Are you afraid of who you are?

Afraid of who you are

Are you afraid of who you are?
