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 them 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 hold on
|
To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
|
It’s all too much to take in
|
I can’t hold on
|
To anything watching everything spin
|
With thoughts of failure sinking in
|
|
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
|

How do you think / I’ve lost so much
|
I’m so afraid / I’m out of touch
|
How do you expect / I will know what to do
|
When all I know / Is what you tell me to
|
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
