Unmade
Danger Kids Lyrics

Give me a sec to collect my thoughts
I need a moment to gather my feelings

I write them down and I dust them off
I put my thoughts on paper and clear my mind

Just some book on a shelf with a missing page
I feel incomplete and unimportant

And the front torn off
Irreparable damage seems to define me

I guess the words I made got in the way
My expression of feelings only caused further conflict

And never got across
Communication breakdown prevented healing

I know we don't got much to say
We've lost touch and have nothing more to talk about

But I miss the days when we used to talk
I long for the closeness we used to share

Waiting for change, but each day goes by
I hope for improvement, but time passes irreversibly

I remind myself that our time got lost
I regret what we had and can't get it back

Do you ever think of me? or not at all...
I wonder if you still remember me

Hope hurts most when the truth's involved
Holding onto hope can be painful when reality doesn't match up

So just know, I hope you don't
I hope you've moved on and don't feel the same pain I do

'Cause I do my best up against the wall
I'm trying my hardest despite challenges

I don't want to float through life, I wanna drown in it
I want to fully experience life and all its ups and downs

Break myself down, turn around in it
I'm willing to be vulnerable and grow from my experiences

Take it until I've had enough and then build it back up
I will keep going despite hardships and work to rebuild myself

From the top to the ground again
I'll start again from scratch if needed

So go ahead and say what you need to say
I'm ready to hear whatever you have to say, even if it hurts

'Cause those words might have hurt me yesterday
Your words may have caused pain in the past

And dig deep in the cuts of my chest
Your words can hurt even deeper than physical pain

Just to find out that you'll never get the best of me
You won't bring me down because I'm stronger than that

So dear tragedy, have a seat
I'm ready to face my hardships head-on

I don't give a fuck what you do to me
I won't let my struggles define me

'Cause yeah this light's going to burn out
Life doesn't last forever

But I can't fall, never learned how
I won't give up, even if I don't know how to keep going

And a light can hide when it's dark now
Hope can be hard to find in dark times

I told a lie when the truth would've worked out
I hid my true feelings and it only made things worse

There's nothing left for me to say
I've said all I need to say

And all my friends gave me away
I lost my friends because of my troubles

When every word has been unmade
My words and relationships have fallen apart

You hide your eyes and fall away
You don't want to face the issues between us

If there's something left for you to say
If you have something to say, say it now

Some twisted words, a shattered phrase
Your words may be hurtful or difficult to understand

Rolls off the tongue, it falls and fades
Your words may not have lasting impact

Lied to your face, I'll never change
I lied to you and I can't make things right

Am I sick of home, or just homesick?
I don't know if I miss my home or the people in it

Exhausting how I can't focus
I'm overwhelmed and unable to concentrate

Adjust and go, flux and flow
I'm dealing with changes and trying to adapt

Smile so you don't notice
I'm hiding my pain behind a facade

'Cause right now, now's not a good time
I'm going through a rough patch

You don't want to know me on the inside
There's a lot going on inside me that I can't share

Shadows move fast in a blackout
Difficult times can feel overwhelming and intense

Lost in a dark place, gone, but I'm back now
I've been through a tough time, but I'm still standing

At the start, wasn't no one there for me
I had to rely on myself at the beginning of my journey

To care for me, I tiptoed carefully
I was cautious and didn't trust easily

And yeah, you were looking to embarrass me
You wanted to humiliate me in front of others

But you move in the dark so carelessly
You hurt others without care or forethought

And the worst thing? I miss you bad...
Despite everything, I still miss you

I hate myself for the times we had
I regret my past actions and decisions

Tell me now what it's like to know
Please share your thoughts and perspective

Once you let go you can never get it back
Once something is lost, you can't regain it

They say when no one believes you, believe yourself
Sometimes you have to trust yourself when nobody else does

Stare in the mirror until you see yourself
Reflect on yourself and your identity

Crawl until you walk until you free yourself
Keep pushing forward until you find freedom and happiness

And when they start lending hands you won't need the help
With enough perseverance, you can overcome obstacles on your own

But I'm lost in the glare of the limelight
I'm overwhelmed by the attention and scrutiny of others

Scared at the thought of my old life
I'm afraid of the life I left behind

Phone in my hand and it's midnight
I'm alone with my thoughts and it's late

All missed calls, guess I never got the time right
I missed my chance to connect with others
