Beat me, break me down but I'm still standing
Picking pieces off the ground again
If one day I fall, just hope I stick the landing
Not at the gates screaming to let me in
But I don't know where to start
Damned if I do, it's way too late to fix it
I'll be damned if I don't get rid of my existence
And I said "damn", 'cause you gotta try
Even if you never win
You can't pretend, you'll never be out there again
Clip his wings, he don't deserve the halo
I'm losing faith in everyone again
If the TV stations tell their lies on cable
Then we're so blind that we'll be tuning in
But I don't know where to start
Damned if I do, it's way too late to fix it
I'll be damned if I don't get rid of my existence
And I said "damn", 'cause you gotta try
Even if you never win
You can't pretend, you'll never be out there
Holding on to nothing
Till it turns into something
Don't like who I'm becoming
I can't keep running
Searching for an answer
Re-reading every chapter
There's no happy ever after when it's over
Damned if I do, it's way too late to fix it
I'll be damned if I don't get rid of my existence
And I said "damn", 'cause you gotta try
Even if you never win
You can't pretend, you'll never be out there again
