"Cycle Breaker" lyrics

You used to say that I
Was too fragile for the world
Now I think that you were just too
Hard on me

It's all coming to me now
It's like I'm stuck in our old house
Your worst mistakes projected
On a big screen

I've learned that my subconscious
Is a good secret keeper
But things I buried years ago
Are screaming out in pain

Every answer I unearth
Digs the hole deeper
You don't think I'm the victim?
Fine, I'll be the cycle breaker

I have gaps in my memory
Where a childhood should be
And everytime you raise your voice
It all floods back

And I should be grateful for the change
Thanking god we're not estranged
But sometimes it feels like
I'm talking to the old dad

I've learned that my subconscious
Is a good secret keeper
But things I buried years ago
Are screaming out in pain

Every answer I unearth
Digs the hole deeper
You don't think I'm the victim?
Fine, I'll be the cycle breaker

I know you're not
The man you once were
You're not a collection
Of your worst moments

I try to separate
From all of the hurt
But that's easier said
When it feels so potent

And being angry
Won't fix a thing
The more that I ruminate
The more that it stings

Filling the gaps in my memory
Where a childhood should be
I have gaps in my memory
Where a childhood should be
I have gaps in my memory
Where a childhood should be
