So, what do you think?
What do I do to ignore what's behind me?
Do I follow my fate to escape blindly?
Do I hide my pride away from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I let it go and try to stand it?
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness?
Or do I trust none and live life in loneliness?
The sunlight burns the skin of sleeping men
I make the right turns but I'm lost within
I put on my daily façade but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself (myself), I ask why
But in my mind, I find I can't rely on myself
(Myself), I ask why
But in my mind, I find I can't rely on myself
I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on put in against you, I can't win
With thoughts of failure sinking in
If I turn my back, I'm defenseless
And to give in to fate seems senseless
If I hide my pride, I lie sleepless
And won't be able to cope with my weakness
If I let them go, I'll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer by myself
By myself (myself), I ask why
But in my mind, I find I can't rely on myself
(Myself), I ask why
But in my mind, I find I can't rely on myself
I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on put in against you, I can't win
With thoughts of failure sinking in
How do you think that I've lost so much
Always afraid that I'm out of touch
How do you expect I'll know what to do
When all I know is what you tell me to
Don't you know
I can't tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can't seem to convince myself why
I'm stuck on the outside
Don't you know
I can't tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can't seem to convince myself why
I'm stuck on the outside
I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on put in against you, I can't win
With thoughts of failure sinking in
I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on put in against me, I can't win
With thoughts of failure from with-
