lyrics

I am insanely grateful that nothing's ever fair
Judgment would reduce me to ashes
Justification; turn around; I'm stabbing myself in the back
Worse, I like the show

I'm not meant for this any more
I'm not meant for this any more

And it's a double-edged elation
When I make the realization that I've made
A thousand times before
And I forget how I've denied
To reach this point and get inside of what I prayed for
Wanted sight unseen

When pain is serving as a cradle and a blindfold and a sun
I am the one who made it welcome
Superior and grinning, needing nothing, peeling my good skin
Smiling as it falls

I'm not meant for this any more
I'm not meant for this any more

And it's a double-edged elation
When I make the realization that I've made
A thousand times before
And I forget how I've denied
To reach this point and get inside of what I prayed for
Wanted sight unseen

I'm not meant for this any more
I'm not meant for this any more

And it's a double-edged elation
When I make the realization that I've made
A thousand times before
And I forget how I've denied
To reach this point and get inside of what I prayed for
Wanted sight unseen
