Carry the weight, sinking like a stone
The reason the blame, take it on your own
Darkness within, stakes are all high
Under the skin, it’s harder to try
Trapped in my mind, is where I’m now
Medicated to deal, numb is all i feel...i cant
Feel any less, nothing inside
Only way out, failing outside...dealing with reality
Beginning to end, i cannot defend
Grief and the pain, under the strain
Flowing through
Feel any less, hollow inside
Only way out, time to end this hell
I hide inside
Each day
A struggle worse now than the last
Pushing up hill
Blinded by a shadow cast
Trapped in my mind, is where I’m now
Medicated to deal, numb is all i feel...i cant
Feel any less, nothing inside
Only way out, failing outside....dealing with reality
Beginning to end, I cannot defend, grief and the pain
Feel any less, hollow inside, i failed
grief and the pain, under the strain, grief and the pain
Feel any less, hollow inside
I failed
Beginning to end, I cannot defend, grief and the pain
Feel any less, hollow inside, i failed
Grief and the pain, under the strain, grief and the pain
Under the strain
Inside
Bright lights of the moments left behind
The memories that are made to last, only to unwind
Good times go too fast when cracks begin to show
Are you there or unaware, will to live now in decline
My patience wearing thin
The scars under the skin
The mask I’m forced to wear
The pain that i cant even share
I’m faking every day
It slowly slips away
It’s time to say goodbye
Don’t try to stop me or try
Carry the weight, only mine to own.
The reason, the blame, is what you’ve always shown
All consuming
Darkness within, kills the will to live
Shutting me down, nothing more to give,
I cant stay here
Trapped in my mind, is where I’m now
Medicated to deal, numb is all i feel...i cant
Feel any less, nothing inside
Only way out, failing outside....dealing with reality
I cant stay here
All consuming
