Nothing Within

You're doing all you can to keep your face intact
 You only latch onto me to gain what you lack
 I need some space to breathe
 So stay away from me
 Steady poking and prodding
 You can't see the problem
 Pushing me and pushing me
 Now that'll never solve 'em
 I need to make you see
 You're suffocating me
 You're just deadweight on my shoulders
 Drew the line when they couldn't get any colder
 I need some space to breathe
 So stay away from me
 Take your hands from around my throat
 You've cut off my circulation
 Now it's time to cut the rope
 I need to make you see
 You're suffocating me
 I need a place to sleep
 I've been awake for weeks
 I can't find myself
 'Cause there's nothing within
 I don't know where I've been
 Maybe I never did
 Yeah, I guess I never did
 Constantly looking out for myself
 You're nothing but a hazard to my health
 I need some space to breathe
 So stay away from me
 You stack the pressure on by the pound
 Can't escape 'til I'm in the ground
 I need to make you see
 You're suffocating me
 Stray from the center
 Split from the mixture
 Say what you want
 But I'm stepping out the picture
 I need some space to breathe
 So stay away from me
 You're pulling me under
 And I'm fighting to find the surface
 Let me reflect
 I just need to find purpose
