I'm hanging on by a thread
I thought I had it in my hands
Under my control
But now I understand
That I'm the one it holds
Its eating up my time
I'm starving for my life
Can't help it anymore
Not sure what's real and what's a lie
I'm hiding in the daylight
Wide awake till the sunrise
Nothing ever hits hight
Till I get my compromise
Swaying back and forth now
Getting by somehow
I'm calming myself down
But I'm locked in this vice
I can't break this habit
I can't take this damage
Down a dose till I'm spent
Till I fall back to regret
Give me less, give me more
Ripped apart untill I'm torn
But I'm sick of the back and forth
Back and forth, back and forth
I'm done singing like a pendulum
Hypnotized so call me hostage
Paralyzed but I'm not fighting it
Raise me up keep me from falling
Not a seer but I'm still calling it
I don't expect to get your empathy
When my best friend is my enemy
Singing out a dissonant harmony
This addiction is my therapy
I'm hiding in the daylight
Wide awake till the sunrise
Nothing ever hits right
Till I get my compromise
Swaying back and forth now
Getting by somehow
I'm calming myself down
But I'm locked in this vice
I can't break this habit
I can't take this damage
Down a dose till i'm spent
Till i fall back to regret
Give me less, give me more
Ripped apart until I'm torn
But I'm sick of the Back and forth
Back and forth, back and forth
I guess
I'm blessed
With a curse to cause this mess
The truth
My noose
Wraps tight around my neck
That's it
I'm spent
I'm hanging on by a thread
Back and forth
It's run its course
And all my time has come to an end
I can't break this habit
I can't take this damage
Down a dose till i'm spent
Till i fall back to regret
Give me less, give me more
Ripped apart until I'm torn
But I'm sick of the Back and forth
Back and forth, back and forth
