Not feeling, yet feeling too much
with the screams of happiness
breaking down my door
shove them out, they don't belong
I prefer the nothingness of a silent song

Don't want to be here
Don't want to raise
a happy brood of chicks
that just **** out all of my grace.

Gulping water, treading air
my body floats, my mind in despair
responsibilities crushing my soul
just walk away away away RUN!

Dying one day and cant remember
why i was scared of it.
Not feeling anyway so why
carry on with aplomb?

Run Run Run as fast as I can
smack into a wall of my own making
trapped in my own incompetence of life
Screaming that i want out out OUT

Don't do it it's selfish
you just hurt those around you.
Cant you see i don't care
don't wanna go out with fanfare

Just stop stop STOP
I cant take anymore
passed out half gone on the bathroom floor
smiles are getting harder to fake
as my essence pours out in my dying wake

Run stop Run stop RUN
I can't feel enough to have fun
when does it End?
Maybe take another road
just around the next bend.
