Guilt by Extortionist Lyrics

I thought everything would be just fine
That we would make amends and we would be alright
But I never got to say goodbye. I swear I'm losing my mind
The more that time passes me by

I've been living in a world crawling on my knees
Fucking losing sleep. (Grinding my fucking teeth)
My innocence is tearing at the seams
Why can't I escape this guilt that's haunting me?
It's strangling me
But you'll never under stand that guilt will never set me free
I'm a liar and a coward and my gut still turns within each passing hour

Why can't I just close my eyes?
Why can't I just close my eyes?
Why can't I just close my eyes?
And say goodbye to this life of mine

The weight of regret is fucking dragging me down
Sinking deeper and deeper, forcing me to drown
In a sea that has nothing left for me but a series of bad memories
Nothing but a frayed sanity

Why can't I just close my eyes?
Why can't I just close my eyes?
And say goodbye to this life of mine
Because I'm losing my fucking mind

I would do anything to put my thoughts at ease
And rid myself of the man I said I would never be
I'm a fuck up
I'm a coward and I'm so fucking sorry
I would do anything if I could just rest in peace

I would do anything if I could just rest in peace
