Living in a world, caught between pain, The arrogance of my heart, the insecurities in my brain, A never-ending cycle, of true belief and true doubt Almost sure I've reached my limit, need to find my way out Like an inevitable cliché, I reach for comfort in the bottle, As if an answer sits waiting for me in its hollow, I've spent so many nights drowning through the years No longer sure what I'm searching for, no longer sure if I care Is it time to give up, to give in and move on? Accept my place in this world and admit I'm not strong, Or do I keep searching, and pushing for the light For my piece of freedom to finally sleep through the night I wish I knew the answer, I fear I never will. I hope I'll always care, I fear I no longer do. - Johnathan Andrews

Time Keeps Dwindling
Living in a world, caught between pain, The arrogance of my heart, the insecurities in my brain, A never-ending cycle, of true belief and true doubt Almost sure I've reached my limit, need to find my way out Like an inevitable cliché, I reach for comfort in the bottle, As if an answer sits waiting for me in its hollow, I've spent so many nights drowning through the years No longer sure what I'm searching for, no longer sure if I care Is it time to give up, to give in and move on? Accept my place in this world and admit I'm not strong, Or do I keep searching, and pushing for the light For my piece of freedom to finally sleep through the night I wish I knew the answer, I fear I never will. I hope I'll always care, I fear I no longer do. - Johnathan Andrews
