Each time you fall 
The pieces are only more and farther between 
And those pieces won't hold together
With all the guilt built in your head 

Well I see you shake 
I see the paint underneath your fingernails 
Scratching the walls 
Scratching the moments that brought you here 

Each time you thought you'd hold on 
Trying to stay clean for someone 
Maybe you should just take a look inside yourself 
Cause you create your own hell 

I see them scurry while they're helping dig your grave 
People are so quick to wave your weakness in your face 
Well I'm here to tell you 
Keep one step back from one day at a time 
There's only so much above your head 
That you're supposed to carry 

Each time you thought you'd hold on 
Trying to stay clean for someone 
Maybe you should just take a look inside your hell 
Cause you create your own self

Each time you fall 
The pieces are only more and farther between 
And the pieces won't hold together
With all the guilt built in your head 

I see you shake 
I see the paint underneath your fingernails 
Scratching the walls 
Scratching the moments that brought you here 

Each time you thought you'd hold on 
Trying to stay clean for someone 
Maybe you should just take a look inside yourself 
Cause you create your own hell
