Intro

   
   

Verse

(Play Em Throughout Verse)
Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

Pre-Chorus

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

Chorus

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate 
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Verse

(Play Em Throughout Verse)
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I heard much more
Than anytime before
I have no options left again

Pre-Chorus

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

Chorus

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate 
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Bridge

I'll paint it on the walls 
Cuz I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

Chorus

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
to show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight
