Tragic Endings
Eminem Feat. Skylar Grey Lyrics

I'm stumbling, I can't see straight
I'm having a hard time focusing due to my personal issues

And it's my fault I got this way
I blame myself for the situation I am in

I got my hands on something great
I secured something wonderful in my life

And found a way to mess it up
But I ruined it because of my actions

I did my best, I tried to change
I put in effort to fix things

But it's just in my DNA
But my natural tendencies prevent progress

Now I'm the one thing you couldn't hate more
I have become someone you despise the most

But you're the one thing that I would die for
But you are still the one person I would do anything for

All my life, I was told, I was never nothing special
I have always been told I am not unique or remarkable

I don't need to be reminded of it every other second
I do not want constant negative reminders

'Specially when all my self-esteem's
Especially when my self-confidence is already fragile

Already shot to hell, I'm falling helplessly
Which makes me feel helpless and lost

I'm embarrased, I don't want no one else to see
I am ashamed and don't want others to witness it

'Cause I feel like I'm a piece of shit every time she yells at me
I feel worthless every time she raises her voice at me

Selfishly addicted, definitely doesn't help that she
Despite being selfish, I am still addicted to her

Makes me feel like I've died and gone to heaven
She gives me moments of happiness that feel unreal

But makes life a living hell for me
But she also creates chaos and misery in my life

She does that thing with her lip, now she's melting me
Her seductive behavior affects me deeply

I'm putty in her palms, I'm wrapped around her finger
I am easily manipulated by her

A yo-yo on a string, she lets me sit there and just dangle
She plays with my emotions like a toy

Until something better comes along
Until someone else catches her attention

And she'll just drop me like a hot potato
And she will end things with me abruptly and without remorse

I look like I'm in pain, but I'm okay though
I appear to be in distress, but I manage to cope

'Cause I know she loves me, my friends, what do they know?
Because I believe she truly cares for me, regardless of my friends' opinions

It's like I'm drowning at sea
I feel like I am drowning in my problems

Hoping that you reach for me
I hope someone will help me out of this situation

I know you're there, but I can't see
I know someone is there to support me, but I cannot perceive it

'Cause I'm so drunk off tragic endings
Because I am heavily influenced and affected by negative outcomes in my life

I'm dying to breathe
I feel suffocated and desperate for relief

And all you do is strangle me
But you only make things worse for me

Such a beautiful relief
Despite this, there are moments of relief that seem beautiful

It took a while for me to get it, but I think I've figured it out
I struggled to understand, but I think I have found clarity

She don't want me, she just don't wanna see me with someone else
She does not want a relationship with me, but she also does not want me to be with anyone else

The idea of seeing me happy destroys her in itself
The thought of me being happy without her pains her

To see me falling to pieces brings her joy and brings her health
Seeing me suffer and struggle is satisfying for her

But it annoys her to see me get the strength to say, "Screw her!"
But she becomes annoyed when I am able to find the courage to leave her

I threw up on myself, I'm dumb sick, I'm addicted to her
I am disgusted with myself for being addicted to her

She's tryna block the door, so here's how I do her
She is trying to prevent me from leaving, so I take action

Since I'm manure, she's a sewer
Since I am worthless, she is a source of negativity in my life

And this time this piece of shit's running through her
This time, I am going to cause pain to her instead of the other way around

I can see the light, now I'm running to it
I can finally see a way out and I am pursuing it

What the fuck? Shoulda knew it!
But now I realize that something bad was bound to happen

Who would think she'd actually have the balls to do it?
I am shocked that she had the nerve to take such drastic measures against me

As soon as I hopped in it, she doused the car with lighter fluid
As soon as I got in the car, she poured gasoline all over it

She's standing there with a rag, 'bout to put the lighter to it
She is waiting with a lighter to set the car on fire

Lit the fucking thing on fire, then she threw it
She set the car ablaze and then threw the lighter
