Citizen Soldier Strong For Somebody Else
[Verse 1]
I've played out the scene so much in my head
I have to wake up but I'd rather be dead
Haunted by thoughts of the ones I love most
I picture them living alone with my ghost
[Pre-Chorus]
Kill the pain and
Kill the family
Choke the dark down
Just be happy
Talk myself off
Of this ledge I know all too well
[Chorus]
My personal hell
I'll bury it, bury it
Weight of the world
I'll carry it, carry it
Pile it all on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Put my pain in a pill
I'll swallow it, swallow it
Too numb to feel
I'm hollow, I'm hollow
I have to hold on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
[Verse 2]
This voice in my head, it wants me to choose
Die selfish or live with my head in a noose
Does it ever get better, is this worth the fight?
Everyone has a breaking point, guess we'll find mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Kill the body
Not the memory
Wouldn't blame 'em
They'd resent me
Kind of scares me
What it takes to just save myself
[Chorus]
My personal hell
I'll bury it, bury it
Weight of the world
I'll carry it, carry it
Pile it all on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Put my pain in a pill
I'll swallow it, swallow it
Too numb to feel
I'm hollow, I'm hollow
I have to hold on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
[Post-Chorus]
Somebody else
Somebody else
[Chorus]
My personal hell
I'll bury it, bury it
Weight of the world
I'll carry it, carry it
Pile it all on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Put my pain in a pill
I'll swallow it, swallow it
Too numb to feel
I'm hollow, I'm hollow
I have to hold on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
[Post-Chorus]
Somebody else
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
