As I said goodbye
I felt the tears about to fall.
So I scuttled away into the hole,
But as soon as I had left
I fell into that trap.
The old one, where you feel nothing but fear.

I had to get out and just stand for a while
But it took me all the strength that I had.
So I shut my eyes loosely
And I thought about things.
Anything that could take me away,
Just something to take me away.

Someone tell me there's a place
Where people go to and feel better.
I wish to go there as soon as I can.
I'm just tired of this life, I'm not living.
Days just fall into each other and
I just want to be alone.

I'm walking swiftly
As if to say I don't wish to talk but
The truth is that I want nothing more.
I'm so scared of opening up, though,
Because I should be happy, you know,
But there's just nothing to be happy about.

All of these thoughts they just fade into each other
But I know one feeling is standing out strong.
So I shut my eyes loosely
And I think about things.
Anything that can take me away,
Just something to take me away.
