Living in a masquerade Running from mistakes I've made But the damage is done I can't escape the monster I've become I live everyday in a haze, half awake Longing to feel something more than agony If misery loves company Why does everyone leave me? I can't escape this place in my head Taking steps from every wrong decision I've made. Its unforgettable, the day I lost your touch I only cope with memory's with this bottle as a crutch. I dont know if I can escape this place in my head. I've tried so many times I hit rock bottom instead. You say you know me but i dont know myself Im just so sick of trying to be like everyone else. Its not supposed to be this way I can't find a way to change. If misery loves company Why does everyone leave me? I can't escape this place in my head Taking steps from every wrong decision I've made. Im searching for a sign of life just to realize I am hollow inside. I can't remember when I lost my light because I've never felt alive. I've been thinking of ways to bring you back to me. Nothing seems to work I'm in love with the hurt.
