What do I do to ignore them behind me
Do I follow my instincts blindly
Do I hide my pride
From these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts
That are maddening
Do I sit here and try to stand it
Or do I try to catch em red-handed
Do I trust some
And get fooled by phoniness
Or do I trust nobody
And live in loneliness
Because I can’t hold on
When I’m stretched so thin
I make the right moves
But I’m lost within
I put on my daily facade
But then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself, myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself, myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself
I can’t look around
It’s too much to take in
I can’t hold on
When i’m stretched so thin
I can’t slow down
Watching everything spin
I can’t look back
Starting over again
If I turn my back I’m defenseless
And to go blindly seems senseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then they’ll take from me
Till everything is gone
If I let them go I’ll be outdone
But if I try to catch them
I’ll be outrun
If I’m killed by the questions
Like a cancer
Then I’ll be buried
In the silence of the answer
By myself, myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself, myself
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can’t rely on myself
I can’t look around
It’s too much to take in
I can’t hold on
When i’m stretched so thin
I can’t slow down
Watching everything spin
I can’t look back
Starting over again
Don’t you…
Know
I can’t tell you how to make it
Go
No matter what I do, how hard I
Try
I can’t seem to convince myself
Why
I’m stuck on the outside… |
