A life that controls you is a life out of control So I stare out the window hoping the colors arn't dull While avoiding the pounding that's breaking my skull I stare at my phone waiting for you to call While balancing on my sanity hoping I don't fall I'm close to the edge yet I continue to stall While I'm fading away, but it's not your fault I don't plan to die because my will is strong But my heart shatters if I hear certain songs It sounds cliche but I promise you're wrong I am anything but happy and calm I continue to hurt with each word that I write But I do it because I know that it's right In the long run I'll feel better is what they say every night Although maybe fading out is better than a fight
