maroblack - why can't i be good? lyrics

(verse 1)
i’m broken; torn apart
i have internal scars
i didn’t grow up rough
but daddy always said “it will be tough”
they said “you can do no wrong”
said “stop giving up”
but now i’ve lost all their trust
(chorus)
every day
every night
i walk the waters surrounded by light
they said “growing up is hard, relax child, and don’t give up.”
but it’s not that easy
they don’t see the real me
oh, why, why, why can’t i be good?
i wanna be the purest
i wanna gain back my innocence
i was taught so much so young
why can’t i be good?
(verse 2)
living a lie
i manipulate no matter how hard i try
i always told myself, “do good, you will be treated well.”
i was happy and smart
why can’t i control this?
why can’t i stop myself?
is it possession or free will?
(chorus)
(verse 3)
i have made mistakes
worse than you could imagine
i want them to be happy
i’m more than just a has+been
i want for them to see
the true me
but they would disown me
god please, save me
i want the weight off my shoulders
it’s heavy like a boulder
but i would die the moment i tell them
i’m all alone, got nowhere to go
alone, alone
(bridge)
the truth untold
my masks unfold
leaving a mess
without a home
the truth untold
my masks unfold
leaving a mess
without a home
a fire on the horizon
unlike the one inside me
raging, save me
(chorus)
why can’t i be good?
