Lyrical Analysis of...
I am...
- (Into)
- I am not what I wanna be
- My own demon, it's become a part of me
- Let me explain.. Just watch and see
- I'll show you what it means to be like me.
- (Verse 1)
- Scribbles up the arms, black ink across.
- Things like "I am..., "my hope is lost.
- Finish the sentence, write somethin' like "hated, "
- For me to leave it seems that's the way I'm fated.
- I'm faded, lost, I myself am my demon,
- A black beacon beamin'
- That I'm bein' beaten
- Mentally, but with a real reason
- Wanna talk about my dark sides? You ain't even seen 'em
- Give a little smile, just to hide
- What it is that I really feel inside,
- You've got no idea what I feel like
- "Yeah, I'm fine, "I lied, 'cause my heart has died.
- Just a post? This is more than that, at most
- I spit from my heart, I let my scars show
- I'm speakin' the truth, by my mind I'm attacked,
- I know that I've already faded to black
- (Chorus)
- (I am... )Nothing, not worth a damn
- (I am.... )Hated, ever since my life began
- (I'll be... )Like this forever, 'cause I can't change
- (I can't... )Get out, like I'm locked in a cage
- (Verse 2)
- I hate myself, that's the only reason I need
- I got my scars, I've even seen myself bleed
- A friend tells me that I can't leave,
- But every time he says it, I think "I concede "
- "Try again, that's when you will succeed "
- But since my first burning thought, I planted the seed
- Made it so I wanna be buried,
- I never wanna wake up when I fall asleep
- I caved, after a long strong streak, I'm weak,
- Nothing, hated, a waste, check off all three
- I'm a failure. Every word I speak, don't you see
- Then again, you don't know me, so I'll let it be
- (Chorus 2)
- (I am... )A danger to myself, that much I already know
- (I am... )Hateful, depressed, I've got the scars to show
- (I'll be... )Alone, thinking of everything I've been through
- (I can't... )Be a good person, I'm horrible, and dark, too
- (Verse 3/Bridge)
- I give up. I got scars. I've done all I can to cope
- But I'm lost in despair, I've been without my hope
- Grab life and hold? Fuck it, I'd rather grab the rope
- Hang myself, I wanna disappear like smoke
- Inside I'm broke, my other side wants to show
- The voice inside my head that screams for me to go
- "You're fucking worthless! But you don't need me to know "
- "You've known it yourself, "it yells "haven't you, though? "
- "Why are you alive? You can't keep up with life, you're slow "
- From the side, I watch my depression and hatred grow
- Can't control myself, my demon makes it so
- Then again.. I'm my demon, so the fault's my own
- I'm alone, with a heart of stone no one can condone
- At least, that's what it seems, but inside he's a cyclone
- Death isn't unknown, because for me it's like home
- So take me back, I'm done with this cruel life that I've known.
- (Outro)
- (I am... )Everything that I mentioned
- (I am... )Self hating, depressed, and for death I'm destined
- (I'll be... )Gone one day, you'll move on the next
- (I can't... )Be helped, I already tried my best
