Downcast - britannia mills

I'm not the person that I was then
But the ache still tries to haunt me
The battles fought inside my head
And the demons that would taunt me

I'll look my fears straight in the eyes
And say I'm not afraid
But they'll come back for me someday
Like child's play

There's not a single thing I miss
But you were dangerously alluring
Preying on my darkness
Your eyes did all the talking

I didn't think I was alone
'Til I was miles away from home
With a bracelet still tied to my wrist
A fight just to exist

I still feel the pain
But I feel it in new ways

I'm not the person that I was then
But the ache still tries to haunt me
The battles fought inside my head
And the demons that would taunt me

I'll look my fears straight in the eyes
And say I'm not afraid
But they'll come back for me someday
Like child's play

I know what it's like
To question everyone in your life
A dull depression, a strange obsession
Are they insane, or am I?
Some days I wonder what it's like to die
To leave it all behind

But if you pass through hell
Why would you choose to stay there?
This devil on your shoulder
Is a weight you can't bear

I still feel the pain
But I feel it in new ways

I'm not the person that I was then
But the ache still tries to haunt me
The battles fought inside my head
And the demons that would taunt me

I'll look my fears straight in the eyes
And say I'm not afraid
But they'll come back for me someday
Like child's play

They'll come back for me someday
I'll force myself to stay awake
'Cause if I stop myself from dreaming
They will have no dreams to take

Slept alone in a hospital bed
You asked me where I'd want to be
I could've seen you in that moment
You should've been right there with me

Throwing up in the bathroom
Hit me with the bad news
Tell me that you're done
And I never should've had you

I still feel the pain
I feel it always

You were coming back for round two
Kick me when I'm down
You wished that I was dead
Should've known that you were bad news

I still feel the pain
I feel it always

Throwing up in the bathroom
Hit me with the bad news
Tell me that you're done
And I never should've had you

I still feel the pain
I feel it always
