Open eyes
|
roll out of bed again
|
and go through the motions
|
awake and unconscious.
|
look in the mirror
|
there I am again
|
feeling so empty
|
the greyest shade of sick.
|
sometimes my eyes deceive
|
I try not to blink
|
I think I see the beauty again
|
has it returned?
|
then it's gone; the moment's lost
|
sinking all over again
|
this false sense of hope is far too much.
|
I can only run so far before I tire and fall
|
falling again and again I stay down.
|
I wish I was someone
|
I wish I was something
|
I wish they could see me again
|
I was trying too hard
|
|
Fall apart, like so many broken hearts
|
Infect my mind, like so many left behind
|
Cross my heart, as I hope to die
|
Twisting the knife so slowly
|
As I crawl away again
|
|
I want to be no one
|
I want to be nothing
|
I want to be invisible
|
Until my tears have dried
|
|
Fall apart, like so many broken hearts
|
Infect my mind, like so many left behind
|
Cross my heart, as I hope to die
|
Twisting the knife so slowly
|
As I crawl away again
|
|
Crawl away...into one more day
|
Just another shade of grey
|
|
