lyrics

It’s one of those days when I’m barely holding on
I think I finally reached my limit
The ache I feel right now is more than I can bear
How did I get so tied and twisted?

I look like hell and for weeks I’ve been awake
From everything I’ve kept my distance
I’ve ignored everything, pushed everyone away
Now I’m drowning in my silence

How can I keep myself in the eye of the storm
After it’s poured out on me in waves
Such an eerie calm
Inside a world out of control
Will I get a chance to fix all my mistakes?
Will it pass or will it take me to my grave?

If I could go back and do it all over again
I’d probably have myself committed
I can’t forget what I know I can’t defend
I gotta stop myself from drifting

I look like hell and for weeks I’ve been awake
There are ghosts ‘round every corner
I've ignored everything just trying not to break
By my failures I am tortured

How can I keep myself in the eye of the storm
After it’s poured out on me in waves
Such an eerie calm
Inside a world out of control
Will I get a chance to fix all my mistakes?
Will it pass or will it take me to my grave?

How can I keep myself in the eye of the storm
After it’s poured out on me in waves
Such an eerie calm
Inside a world out of control
I know I’ve only got myself to blame
Will it pass or will it take me to my grave?
