From the scrapes and bruises
to the familiar abuses
I'll kick and scream
But it never changes anything
I could spill my guts out
Wearing my best little girl pout
I almost missed it
But nobody said this was gonna be easy

This is not the man I hoped to be
and I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how to word it 
I just started to deserve it
and all my faces are alibis, and me
I'm half the man I wanted to be

Most times it comes out wrong
I don't know the words but I'll hum along
There's nothing familiar here anymore
to anyone or anything enough to feel alive

And I still taste that sickness
and it makes me crazy without it at best
But I'm in the same place I used to be
but I'm trying harder not to be

So what am I
And all my,
All my faces are alibis
This is not the man I hoped to be
and I'm just trying to stop the bleeding

I don't know how the words go 
I just started not to say no

Don't want it, don't get it
I know you won't regret it
Don't surface, don't surface, 
And I feel so damn worthless

Another day is gone 
and all my faces are alibis, 
and me,
I'm half the man I wanted to be.
