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   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'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   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      Never reaching me
