One of those days where the floors fall away
A dark day
It's been cold and cloudy for so long
I'm not so sure I'm unsure what's wrong
I might know, you know
I don't want to... but I do

A day where you've arrived at a point and you look back
And you're overcome with the idea that
You have been going the wrong way for a really long while
And there has been so much sadness behind this smile

This idea seems too crushing to believe
A message too painful to receive
I could continue this path and go on deceiving
All the while my heart  is grieving

I feel like I cant put these thoughts back in the box
It shouldn't feel this way...there is very little laughter that genuinely ignites my heart in a pure and happy way,  my heart feels like a sad bag of rocks.

If I jump into the ocean now will there ever be a sunrise or a sunray within my reach?
Or will I get crushed by the waves and washed up on the beach
Either way time is running out in this life of mine.
No one on this earth is really fine.
