Holding nothing, nothing at all
Scratching and scraping the walls just to survive
You cannot fathom what that's like
You can listen to all the lies
And in the end you will do your time

Holding nothing
Staring at myself again
What I see would swallow you
In your eyes I'll always be nothing

Never did you understand; never did you give respect
Never did you ever love

I will never ever lose the scars you gave
No longer can I live in serenity
And yea we we will carry anguish to the grave
Frustration that I can't let go

To see you smile and happy cuts me so deep
Knowing that you're no longer here

I see you dying as I sleep
And I wish I could leave it all

and all this is ......self inflicted
All my pain is
All this pain is
Self inflicted
