lyrics

I might be the bane of my darling's existence,
but she might find a home in my hungering flames.
I get so consumed by the birth of my vision,
That I don't have no shame in the things that I am.

I don't know how else I should feel,
But I've been drinking twice my weight.
I can't condemn myself to,
Living inside the many mistakes I've made;

I don't know what else I could do,
But I've been patient all my life.
I can't just live inside the memories
Of the frivolous things I write.

(And so I'm shaking it all away, shaking it all away)

All of the pain it brings.

(Shaking it all way, shaking it all away)

All of the self doubt.

(And so I'm shaking it all away, shaking it all away)

All of the pain it brings.

(Shaking it all way, shaking it all away)

All of the self doubt.

I could spill my thoughts here, and hope that you listen.
And they might resonate in your mind when I'm gone.
Cause I won't find a hint of the things that I'm missing,
But I won't say a word if I feel like I'm wrong.

I get so distraught when I think of our distance,
But I can pay my bills off right here in these keys.
You know if I tried I could keep it consistent.
So I won't compromise in the words that I weave.

I don't know how else I should feel,
But I've been drinking twice my weight.
I can't condemn myself to,
Living inside the many mistakes I've made;

I don't know what else I could do,
But I've been patient all my life.
I can't just live inside the memories
Of the frivolous things I write.

(And so I'm shaking it all away, shaking it all away)

All of the pain it brings.

(Shaking it all way, shaking it all away)

All of the self doubt.
