Breaking The Habit--Meteora

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I’m picking me apart again
You all assume
I’m safe here in my room
(Unless I try to start again)

I don’t want to be the one
The battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or what I have to scream
I don’t know why I instigate
And say what I don’t mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I know it’s not alright
So I’m breaking the habit...
I’m breaking the habit tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

I don’t want to be the one
The battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don’t know why I instigate
And say what I don’t mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I’ll never be alright
So I’m breaking the habit...
I’m breaking the habit tonight

I’ll paint it on the walls
Cuz I’m the one at fault
I’ll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I’ll never be alright
So I’m breaking the habit...
I’m breaking the habit...
I’m breaking the habit...tonight
