Blood On My Hands

I told everyone I was fine
when in reality the blood is mine
but still nobody understands
why I have blood on my hands
I'm my own worst enemy
it's like there's ten of me 
all trying to destroy 
everything that I enjoy 
especially my sanity 
right now I'm not even a fan of me
but still nobody understands 
why I have blood on my hands
I recognize the stupid things I've done
more so than the battles I've won
how long will I keep making mistakes
my guess is for as long as it takes
I've chosen to embrace my flaws
and fight in the name of cause
but still nobody understands 
why I have blood on my hands
what would you sacrifice today
to keep your dreams from fading away
I'm willing to do what's necessary 
to leave a legacy nothing short of legendary
