Hand Me Down

Have you ever felt so lost within?

Like you don’t even belong in your own skin

Like you’re the broken puzzle piece

That doesn’t fit in anywhere

’cause no one cares

So many nights I lie awake

Wondering why nobody stays

I’m just a hand me down

I’m just a hand me down

I open up, I get replaced

Like who I am is a mistake

I’m just a hand me down

I’m just a hand me down

I’ve been running on this lonely road

But no matter where i go

I’m never home

Some days I’d rather be anyone but who I am

Just an afterthought that no one cares to understand

Wish I could see it in myself

Why I’m impossible to love

Why I’m not enough

So many nights I lie awake

Wondering why nobody stays

I’m just a hand me down

I’m just a hand me down

I open up, I get replaced

Like who I am is a mistake

I’m just a hand me down

I’m just a hand me down

I’ve been running on this lonely road

But no matter where i go

Do I choose denial?

Embrace this downward spiral?

It gets so hard to face the truth

When your reality’s a noose

What good’s survival

When everything feels final?

There’s nothing quite like this abuse

Of feeling like I have no use

Stuck in a life no one would choose

So many nights I lie awake

Wondering why nobody stays

I’m just a hand me down

I’m just a hand me down

I open up, I get replaced

Like who I am is a mistake

I’m just a hand me down

I’m just a hand me down

I’ve been running on this lonely road

But no matter where i go

I’m never home
