I need to tell the truth Let me be candid Out here in a world full of bandits Diluted infractions Yet I need action Drowning in "look at me pollution" love's an illusion On a lonely screen I find unsolicited advice How nice... Is this my new therapy? I've lost my mind Without meaning how can I believe? Where's the truth What's the truth Where's the love What's the proof? You said I matter That's a lie Watch me shatter inside Over and over I die life goes by Like a racecar I'm tired, scarred, never understanding why What'd you say? Say what you mean Do what you say There's no in-between If all I have is you How the hell am I Supposed to make it through I don't have it in me to keep on giving Please can anyone make this life worth living
