Lyrics of 'An Emperor Among Us' by To Outlive The Beginning

An Emperor Among Us

damn this im plagued with a good conscious for all it seems and all it is
I still want to be everything to everybody else but this just isnt working this is never been the life of choice for me

will be able to keep this up from right now until the end? I spread myself far too thin I cant even breathe or begin to think what life would be like without the constant stress of this day to day ability to please everyone
depressing cycle of nothing but emptiness when Im always too tired to give what I have today
stop this indecisive shit no one wants to be dragged down with you

i've said you should stand beside your decisions and your probably the last to heed your own words
but who cares as long as you are happy? Cause dont you know the best way to just do what works for you? you spend far too much time trying to make others happy and draining life from yourself
do you really want to be the only one second guessing your every move? I no longer need to apologize to you.
