***** i cannot change it
if i could, i would escape this
you and me are outrageous.
i don't have it in me to fight
i feel so hated, i cannot take it
i hope i'll be alright.
lookin' back to the summer lovin' and selfishly countin' bliss,
i've been through a grimmer something, but never more than this,
how it all comes back to nothing, how do you ever escape from it ?
i see in the mirror, i see a grin and her hurting and it makes me sick
if you don't know what pain is, how do you paint it ?
how do you figure out a way to say you know what faded
how do you tell them that the pain inside you is dangerous
to keep them their distance or they'll be burnt pages
tell them to stop sayin' it!
***** i cannot change it
if i could, i would escape this
you and me are outrageous
so many different faces
been through so many stages
so true about them phases
the way they say it
it's all true ain't it ?
love is it ?
the way life out paces
and everybody just races
it never fails to amaze me
how much everyone has waited
to feel alive
lord, help me through the night,
if i could, i would escape this
i don't have it in me to fight
i feel so hated, i cannot take it
i hope i'll be alright.
