Lyrics
"There's something wrong with you," she whispered
As I climbed into her bed
She didn't know how right she was
But things have been so messed up in my head
And I use remedies no doctor would prescribe
And all they do is leave me with a hollow sense of pride
Have you ever been so hopelessly conflicted?
Standing on the edge of breaking down
I hope someday that I am able to fix this mess I've made
But I'm still trying to figure me out
Desperate for a beacon
Tossed among relentless seas
There's so many things I have compromised
I've broken things that don't belong to me
I hear everything they say
And the ghosts that I've created I see twice a day
Have you ever been so hopelessly conflicted?
Standing on the edge of breaking down
I hope someday that I am able to fix this mess I've made
But I'm still trying to figure me out
Right now all that's keeping me together
Is the love of two people a hundred miles away
So as I wave goodbye to youth and struggle with the truth
The only thing that's left to do is pray
Have you ever been so hopelessly conflicted?
Standing on the edge of breaking down
I hope someday that I am able to fix this mess I've made
But I'm still trying to figure me out
