|
Go, run away in distress |
|
Try to hide from what's |
|
Creeping and crawling and stabbing within! |
|
Try to deny the turmoil inside |
|
If you fight yourself hard enough |
|
You'll never win any ounce of serenity |
|
Or a calm hope at best |
|
Or a calm hope at best |
|
Can leave you heaving on the floor |
|
Gasping for breath, |
|
Are you gasping for breath? |
|
To be left on the floor gasping for breath |
|
You're either the person you are |
|
Or the person you're trying, trying, trying, trying to be |
|
Don't let the outside sway too far |
|
From where you want to be |
|
And at any cruel moments notice |
|
You can ruin the best |
|
As your body is brutally pressed |
|
Against the confines of your tense flesh |
|
And if you close your eyes tight enough |
|
Then none of the bad can get, none of the bad can get in |
|
And if you close your eyes tight enough |
|
Then none of the light can get, none of the light can get in |
|
The light can't get in, the light can't get in! |
|
Boom! You scream as the light hits you |
|
It radiates throughout your whole soul |
|
Boom! The pain is clarity, it cleanses |
|
And if it still ****ing hurts |
|
Then you still ****ing know, |
|
That you are still alive, |
|
That you are still in control, if you would only take hold |
|
Boom! The day with both hands, a death grip |
|
And a good chance to outlive your past |
|
Are you living free, are you living free? |
|
You're either the person you are |
|
Or the person you're trying, trying, trying, trying to be |
|
Don't let the outside sway too far |
|
From where you want to be |
|
You're either the person you are |
|
Or the person you're trying, trying, trying, trying to be |
|
Don't let the outside sway too far |
|
From where you want to be |
