Backfire

I've done nothing wrong
But I am not alright
How do I keep my fire burning bright?

I will find a way to be
Something other than someone like me
Who falls for it every single time

This is the part where everyone finds out
That you're a traitor who suffers from your own doubt
This is the part where everyone finds out
That you're a liar

Your lust for deception
It feeds on ambition
To keep your reflection
From dying alone

Why do you like to act like the world
Gave you a choice
You have the will to kill and you have lost your voice

I swear that I am not afraid
But if I protect you who will protect me?

Who will protect me?

The nightmares I believe in
They've never been so real
You always said your love was
Easier for me to steal

I hope the darkness comes
To make me feel okay
I'd rather lose my fire
Than watch it burn my heart away

I fell apart, but I'm moving on now
Stand aside while I watch you crumble down
You left your mark and I found a way out
Please don't follow behind

The more that you struggle
You'll lose all your control
I promised to let go
Just leave me alone

Leave me the fuck alone

Why do you like to act like the world
Gave you a choice
You have the will to kill and you have lost your voice

I swear that I am not afraid
But if I protect you who will protect me?
