Never reaching what I want to reach Never being who I want to be Blaming me when I fall and fail All my dreams splintering Under my fingernails Under my fingernails
I'm empty, lonely, and accused Accused without a word My fingernails are chipping down From clawing in the dirt I'm so lost, lost and confused I threw it all away How can I be beautiful When I am so afraid
Never reaching what I want to reach Never being who I want to be Blaming me when I fall and fail All my dreams splintering Under my fingernails All my dreams out of reach Under my fingernails
I watched it all slip through my hands My brokenness revealed I'm so proud, I'm so proud I'm crying to be filled I'm killing, destroying the plague That's killing me away I've got to live, I've got to love Like I am unafraid
Never reaching what I want to reach Never being who I want to be Blaming me when I fall and fail All my dreams splintering Under my fingernails [2x]
All my dreams out of reach Under my fingernails
I'm wasting, wasting every moment I want to be tasting Tasting every moment with you I'm suffering, I'm bleeding, on my knees Who's going to save me? Suffering, bleeding Save me from this pit of frailty
Never reaching what I want to reach Never being who I want to be Blaming me when I fall and fail All my dreams splintering Under my fingernails [2x]
