We all got our vices,
and mine is so cliche,
like most writers and poets from back in the day,
I've dug my own grave here,
played dead for almost a year,
no longer driven by the fear of failing,
fuck it, I'm over, the truth is I'm bailing.
I'm gonna pull myself out of this grave,
don't think that I can be saved,
with everyone surrounding,
I cannot be defeated.
In memory of being hollow, I'm just coping for tomorrow,
In hopes that I'll come back from the grave.
I've learned to forgive myself,
wasn’t better off alone but with anybody else,
I can take on anything.
I can't thank you enough,
for lifting me up when this shit gets tough,
I owe you everything,
I owe you everything.
I'm gonna pull myself out of this grave,
don't think that I can be saved,
with everyone surrounding,
I cannot be defeated.
In memory of being hollow, I'm just coping for tomorrow,
In hopes that I'll come back from the grave.
We're not done yet, we, never really could let this end.
I’m gonna pull myself out of this grave,
I'll never be saved as long as I misbehave,
I’m wondering how life could be this way,
always stuck in the things that will never change.
I like to think that I'm better than nothin,
my whole life I always wanted to be somethin,
til then, I'll spend, the end, with friends, this grave can't hold me in.
I’m gonna pull myself out of this grave,
I'll never be saved as long as I misbehave,

In hopes that I'll come back from the grave.
We're not done yet, never really could let this end
we're not done yet, never really could, never really could
