the rhyme - scratch21 lyrics

[verse 1: blake swift]
hold your breath
while you watch me fall
it’s easier to say nothing at all
i need a friend, playing pretend’s not working
these pills are useless and the shadows keep lurking
let me go
there’s nothing left inside
to run and hide is all i know to survive
the nightmare won’t end
this life grows colder
come wake me up when it’s all over

[chorus]
some of us made it
but no one deserved it
i’m silent, i’m screaming
sticks and stones was
the rhyme that they taught us
to fight off our monsters
to help numb the darkness
but what they forgot was
is you don’t need to break my bones
for you to break me
the voices won’t stop
don’t let me be alone
please someone, i just wanna go back home

[verse 2]
lock the door
i’m rotting in my room
i hope tomorrow doesn’t come too soon
my tears ran dry, my heart’s suffocating
the bruises and i are slowly fading
make it stop
there’s whispers in my head
the mirrors echo everything they’ve said
to rise and shine is so hard to do
when all the light has been taken from you

[bridge: shane koyczan]
i remember every story they wrote on my back
bruises like words tattooed into my skin in blue and black ink
i remember every kitchen sink surgery
where family had to st-tch me back together
i remember every happily ever that never came to p-ss
we didn’t go to school in fairy tales
we went to school in all the gory details of a horror story
while monsters made us victims of their comedy
we, the recipients of their punch lines
they hung insults around our necks like signs
inviting anyone to join in
their words were invisible ink that they tattooed upon our skin

[chorus: blake swift]
some of us made it
but no one deserved it
i’m silent, i’m screaming
sticks and stones was
the rhyme that they taught us
to fight off our monsters
to help numb the darkness
but what they forgot was
is you don’t need to break my bones
for you to break me
the voices won’t stop
don’t let me be alone
please someone, i just wanna go back home

[outro]
i know that i’m stronger
broken heart of a fighter
my scars remind me that i’m a survivor
this life is a tough game and i don’t wanna play it
i’m reaching for a hand
help me make it
but it’s too much so i give up
just please don’t hate me
my letter’s on the pillow with a kiss goodbye
i’m sorry mom but i promise that i tried
