You were always on top, you always knew what to do.
Until your brain seemed to stop, and all the pressure’s on you.
Life spins in circles, you’re out of control.
All the wasted time is taking its toll.

You don’t see it coming until it hits you head on,
Stressing all night until the break of dawn.
You feel so ashamed, you can’t let it go.
There are so many things you feel you should know.

You’re life is getting low again, darker days are coming.
But all you hear in your head is the constant noise and drumming.
You never even knew you had gotten so high,
until your beautiful life decides to say good bye.

You feel like a failure, but nobody knows.
Some things in life you simply refuse show.
Your life is falling apart, the outside is only a charade,
the endless deterioration is always raining on your parade.

You can’t even concentrate, pointless are the attempts,
When you get this way, all you feel is self-contempt.
You’ve got so many problems, its too hard to be tough.
Once the strongest, you’re not even close to strong enough.

I promise you, that I love you,
but I promised myself
this love wouldn't make me blind.
I have gone through great pain with you,
but I can't go forever.
Alas, have no fear, I will still be kind.

I will try to stand tall and see,
not judge before knowing,
and listen to everything you say.
Tell me everything that you want to be,
and I'll help you make it there.
But I can't leave other's on the way.

Even as my heart begins to swell,
from all the pressure building,
We'll keep marching onward and out.
I can almost see the light and see it well,
just a little farther yet.
We'll make it through without a doubt.

I promise you, that I love you,
but I promised myself
this love wouldn't make me blind.
I have gone through great pain with you,
but I can't go forever.
Alas, have no fear, I will still be kind.

I like to walk to a different beat,
So I can feel the earth beneath my feet.

Stay a while and smell the flowers,
Waltz my way through an april shower.

I like to run with a different stride,
So I can feel the sand inching out with the tide.

Hear the wind over distant lands,
Listen for nature's calls as I lay in the sand.

Some say I've got a dark past,
but boy you haven't got a clue.
'Cause yours is tarnished by the pain
that's caused by loving you.

Well tonight I know,
I've let you go.
Don't **** me anymore,
I'm already low.
Don't ask what I mean,
just know.

Its been a difficult road just getting to here.
I've loved and I've lost what I wanted to hold near.
You saved me but I was foolish, I've got a silly little heart.
But at least I knew I had to let you go right from the start.

Well tonight I know,
I've let you go.
Don't **** me anymore,
I'm already low.
Don't ask what I mean,
*just know.
