I grind my teeth, it hurts to speak about things I've kept to myself I try to put it all behind me, I don't wanna fight I'll find repose I've held my head down way too low 'Cause that's all I've know and you wonder why I don't know how to say it, but I'm gonna try my best, here it goes So how can I be fine when everything is crashing? Why do you cross my mind when fire burns around me? I'm forced to walk your line, I should've walked away 'Cause maybe then you'd see the damage that you did to me I made it out alive, my life was awfully hazy It broke me down, I talk it out, I'm not ready to face it So I'll just bottle it Put another one down, and ball your fist I feel fear when you stumble in I know that look and pain that comes with it I'm holdin' on, I swear to God These memories won't make me I can't forgive and I won't forget 'Cause these scars are permanent So how can I be fine when everything is crashing? Why do you cross my mind when fire burns around me? I'm forced to walk your line, I should've walked away 'Cause maybe then you'd see the damage that you did to me I wish that things could be different In a perfect world, I don't hold a grudge And we find the love that you wasted I try to sleep, but it bothers me And I'm left to weep, I feel empty What's done is done, so I'll spare my lungs I won't let it bring me down I wish you'd right your wrong with that pride You hold way down in your dark soul I'm waiting for the guilt to die 'Cause I never got a chance to say goodbye So how can I be fine when everything is crashing? Why do you cross my mind when fire burns around Me So how can I be fine when everything is crashing? Why do you cross my mind when fire burns around me? I'm forced to walk your line, I should've walked away 'Cause maybe then you'd see the damage that you did to me
