Drowning in the past, seeking the foundation.

lyrics

High to low
it's all I've ever known
Wax to wane
it's always been the same

Hunting David
seeking the ideal
Unable to sift perfection
from the crudity of the real

When will I be enough?
When will I say the right thing?
to find my person loved
and not just be the background music

Read my face
the scars they tell my story
Leave no trace
as you dig below my quarry

Heart placed on sleeve
begging for attention
Can't stay, won't leave
a walking contradiction

When will I be enough?
When will I look the right way?
to find my person loved
and not just be the background music

Growing up
I heard a lot of names
One was mine
the rest, weapons to maim

Porous, thin skin
will catch up with you one day
When hazy reminders of you
are all that remain
