"Playing The Victim" lyrics

"Playing The Victim"

Sleeping pills stop working when I wake up in the night
So I don't try
Cause when I try to find myself
I find that I...
What have I become now?
Pulling all my knives out
There's no doubt
Everyone will find me out
Fill up all my worries
With the bullshit I decide
To keep as mine
That's just how I seem to like to live my life
What have I become now?
Pulling all my knives out
There's no doubt
Everyone will find me out

I will never sleep again
Dream again
Living without you
I will never feel again
Breathe again
Living without you
And If I had the chance to do it all again
Would I end up right where I began?
I will never sleep again
Dream again
Living without you

Isn't it just like you to put me out when I'm on fire?
Isn't it just like me to keep my head under water?
But I don't wanna find the place
I'm wishing you were still here next to me

I will never sleep again
Dream again
Living without you
I will never feel again
Breathe again
Living without you
And If I had the chance to do it all again
Would I end up right where I began?
I will never sleep again
Dream again
Living without you
