lyrics

No one to blame but myself
For the countless times I have tried and failed
For the absence of stories to tell
I blame myself
Countless times I have tried and failed
I let the addiction prevail

I'm fighting against myself
A battle lost a thousand times before
I keep giving up instead
of pushing further when it gets harder
No one to blame but myself

A war inside my head, the battlefield is leaving me brain dead
My sanity is hanging by a thread
Chaos is raging I just want it to end
I just want it to end
Countless times I have tried and failed
I know I've got
No one to blame but myself

Just let the addiction prevail
Let the addiction prevail

A war is raging on inside my head
My sanity is hanging by a thread
Chaos is raging just make it end
My sanity is hanging by a thread

No one to blame but myself
