So long I’ve been struggling with myself
Can’t find the words to make you understand my pain
The voices taking me belong to no one else
It eats away and it’s driving me insane
I think I’ve lost my mind, and now I’ve lost my way
No matter how I try I can’t make it go away
Is it such a crime to want to end this pain?
I wish that I could find some peace of mind before I die
Sleepless days, and nights that never end
A living hell inside a waking dream
Am I a zombie?
Am I the living dead?
When did laughter begin to drown the scream?
To think there was a time when I could stand and say
I’m happy just to be the man I am today
Somewhere down this line, my life began to fade
But you can’t take a life that’s already gone
I think I’ve lost my mind and now I’ve lost my way
No matter how I try I can’t make it go away
Is it such a crime to want to end this pain?
I wish that I could find some peace of mind before I die
Can’t find the words to make you understand my pain
The voices taking me belong to no one else
It eats away and it’s driving me insane
I think I’ve lost my mind, and now I’ve lost my way
No matter how I try I can’t make it go away
Is it such a crime to want to end this pain?
I wish that I could find some peace of mind before I die
Sleepless days, and nights that never end
A living hell inside a waking dream
Am I a zombie?
Am I the living dead?
When did laughter begin to drown the scream?
To think there was a time when I could stand and say
I’m happy just to be the man I am today
Somewhere down this line, my life began to fade
But you can’t take a life that’s already gone
I think I’ve lost my mind and now I’ve lost my way
No matter how I try I can’t make it go away
Is it such a crime to want to end this pain?
I wish that I could find some peace of mind before I die
I wrote this song a few years ago to a tune my friend came up with. I was in one of the lowest points in my depression, after having lost everything and thinking nothing would ever get better.
