Same wretched thing,
Why try to fight it.
Numb and routine,
Just the way I like it.
A repeat it seems.
Get tedious; might it?
Numb and routine,
Just the way I like it.

Why does my heart go on beating.
Why do my eyes stay wide.
Why does the sun go on rising,
Why do I stay alive.

Why do my lungs go on breathing.
Why are my feelings trapped inside.
Why does the sun go on setting,
Why do I stay alive.

I've carried a boulder,
It's weighed me down.
I've got bruises on my shoulders,
And blood on my crown.

My hands are cut and shaking,
My knees trembling with fear.
I feel my body breaking,
And I sneak a single tear.

Pressure pressing down on me,
Pushing down, pushing down.
Pressure and I cannot breathe.
Sinking down, sinking down.

Pressure weighing down on me,
Pushing down, pushing down.
Pressure and I'm suffocating.
Sinking down, please save me now.

I miss the crowds of people,
All knowing my name.
I miss the chance I didn't see,
The one I didn't take.

I miss the friends I used to have,
People knowing me.
I miss the blissful life I lived,
For now I'm quite lonely.

The stars in the sky,
As they sparkle like your eyes...
Black rimmed, deep blue, glistening white.

Reflecting in your eyes,
I see the whole night...
The moon, the planets, the light far up high.

And even when you cry,
The night is glossy on your eyes...
As you so pitifully gaze into mine.

My mind is in shackles,
My head is a whirlwind.
How can I replace you,
You've only just broken.

I'm broken as well,
Shattered and cracked.
All I can do is die,
To get you back.
