"Hand Me Down" lyrics

"Hand Me Down"

Have you ever felt so lost within?
Like you don't even belong in your own skin
Like you're the broken puzzle piece that doesn't fit in anywhere
'Cause no one cares

So many nights I lie awake
Wondering why nobody stays
I'm just a hand-me-down
I'm just a hand-me-down
I open up, I get replaced
Like who I am is a mistake
I'm just a hand-me-down
I'm just a hand-me-down
I've been running on this lonely road
But no matter where I go
I'm never home

Some days I'd rather be anyone but who I am
Just an afterthought that no one cares to understand
Wish I could see it in myself, why I'm impossible to love
Why I'm not enough

So many nights I lie awake
Wondering why nobody stays
I'm just a hand-me-down
I'm just a hand-me-down
I open up, I get replaced
Like who I am is a mistake
I'm just a hand-me-down
I'm just a hand-me-down
I've been running on this lonely road
But no matter where I go

Do I choose denial?
Embrace this downward spiral?
It gets so hard to face the truth
When your reality's a noose
What good's survival
When everything feels final?
There's nothing quite like this abuse
Of feeling like I have no use
Stuck in a life no one would choose

So many nights I lie awake
Wondering why nobody stays
I'm just a hand-me-down
I'm just a hand-me-down
I open up, I get replaced
Like who I am is a mistake
I'm just a hand-me-down
I'm just a hand-me-down
I've been running on this lonely road
But no matter where I go
I'm never home
