I stare deep down into the eyes of my nightmares
|
As they come to life
|
I feel my heart beat right out of my chest
|
And I think I might be losing the fight
|
I might be losing it
|
|
I live inside my poisoned mind
|
It leaves me paralyzed
|
My visions blurred
|
My words are slurred
|
I think I might, might die tonight
|
|
This shadow follows me
|
It always keeps me on the edge
|
I know that I would never jump
|
So why can't I step back from the ledge?
|
Am I losing control?
|
|
You take me to the darkest places I have ever been
|
I think I feel it coming back again
|
|
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love?
|
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become
|
Inhale, exhale
|
Why is it so hard to breathe?
|
Inhale exhale
|
Why isn't this working?
|
|
If I live to see the other side of this
|
I swear I'll never take for granted any happiness
|
I never knew what I had until it was gone
|
How long will this go on?
|
|
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love?
|
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become
|
Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I'll be fine
|
I just want to be myself again
|
I want to know that I'm alive
|
|
Tell me, is there something that I'm learning from this?
|
I try my best to make the most of it
|
Maybe I just need to see the bigger picture
|
Show me how it ends
|
|
If I have to feel this forever
|
I'd rather feel nothing at all
|
|
Bring me back to life
|
I just can't take another sleepless night
|
Bring me back to life
|
Give me the clarity to see the light
|
|
I know that you can take this away
|
So I'm praying that today is the day
|
Oh, I pray that today is the day
|
Bring me back to life
|
|
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love?
|
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become
|
Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I'll be fine
|
I just want to be myself again
|
I want to know that I'm alive
|
|
Please give me peace
|
Give me joy
|
Give me sanity
|
Give me hope
|
Give me love
|
Give me truth
|
