You were always on top, you always knew what to do.
Until your brain seemed to stop, and all the pressure’s on you.
Life spins in circles, you’re out of control.
All the wasted time is taking its toll.

You don’t see it coming until it hits you head on,
Stressing all night until the break of dawn.
You feel so ashamed, you can’t let it go.
There are so many things you feel you should know.

You’re life is getting low again, darker days are coming.
But all you hear in your head is the constant noise and drumming.
You never even knew you had gotten so high,
until your beautiful life decides to say good bye.

You feel like a failure, but nobody knows.
Some things in life you simply refuse show.
Your life is falling apart, the outside is only a charade,
the endless deterioration is always raining on your parade.

You can’t even concentrate, pointless are the attempts,
When you get this way, all you feel is self-contempt.
You’ve got so many problems, its too hard to be tough.
Once the strongest, you’re not even close to strong enough.
