Breaking The Pattern Songtext
von Echos Inward

Same excuses different night
Same conclusions every time
I say I′m fine then I disappear
Build my walls and call it fear
I know the cycle I know the signs
I see the damage every time
I say next time I'll be better
Then I pull the trigger under pressure

I keep pretending I don′t see it
Like naming it gives it power
But every time I let it breathe
It takes a little more each hour


I'm breaking the pattern
I won't let it win
I′m done with the habits
That bury me in
I′ve said these words before
But now I mean them
This doesn't end again
I′m breaking the pattern

I push away the ones who stay
Then blame myself when they walk away
I turn regret into routine
Convince myself it's just how I′m wired in me
I don't need pain to feel control
I don′t need chaos to feel whole
I'm done confusing who I am
With every failure I can't outrun

I used to call this self-defense
But it was just self-destruction
I don′t need to burn it down
To finally feel like I′m something


I'm breaking the pattern
I won′t let it win
I'm done with the habits
That bury me in
I′ve said these words before
But now I mean them
This doesn't end again
I′m breaking the pattern

This isn't sudden
This isn't clean
It′s choosing different
When it′s uncomfortable for me
I don't need perfect
I need aware
I don′t need change
If I'm not staying there

I′m breaking the pattern
Not running this time
I see the lie before it speaks
I don't give it mine
This doesn′t fix everything
But it's a start
I'm breaking the pattern
Inside my mind

It ends with me
