The Story Songtext
von Envy of None

I try to be better, look ahead
I′m dead in the depth of my reflection
How can I see through the center?
I'm a fool to think that I could figure it out

These walls are caving in
But I won′t notice 'til the cracks begin
To break into my spine
And take the shape of every line
(Every line, every line)
And shape my mind

If I could be a better version of me
I'd step into a mirror and come back clean
If I could turn the dead fall into green
I′d be the hero of the story, but I turn into a villain
When I hurt myself again
And I cannot seem to find the strength to wield that pain
And change myself
Enough to break the wall that I am in


I wanna be changing
It′s a shell, a shield
A cycle that I can't break
Tell myself that I can, a lie
I try a repeated phrase in my brain

These walls are caving in
And I won′t notice 'til the cracks begin
To break into my spine
And take the shape of every

If I could be a better version of me
And step into a mirror and come back clean
If I could turn the deadfall into green
I′d be the hero of the story
But I turn into a villain when I hurt myself again
And I cannot seem to find the strength to wield that pain

I wanna be the hero, please
I wanna be the hero, please
I'd be the hero of the story
I′d be the hero of the story
I'd be the hero of the story
But I turn into a villain
