What I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Did 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 gettin hurt again
By myself [my self]
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 it
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 - by myself
How do you think
I've lost so much
I'm so afraid
I'me 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
