Question


Would you look into my eyes? Would you read into who am? Would you keep my darkest secrets? Like a door shutting, you're a slam. I can't be happy anymore Everything is truly crazy When it comes to caring everyone around me is lazy Will you be there to catch me? Will you help me move on? Will you listen to my story? I keep crying every night, until dawn I sit here in the dark I sit here alone I sit with whispers in my head I sit in my own twilight zone I feel like no one cares I feel like no one is out there Why do you sit idle Give me some refreshing air. How can you relate? How do you know what I feel? You haven't been where I have You haven't walked in my heels. The rain outside, it speaks It speaks gentle words Words I'm sure you won't understand Words you haven't heard. I miss the loudness I miss that laughter I miss the happiness I miss the smiling after. They make me compete For each others attention This shouldn't be a game I want equal affection. They don't notice anything They don't notice I'm a loner Stop and learn from mistakes Be their owner. They seem so desperate Messing with minds Confusing each other Solution they'll find? Doubt it, the ending is the same Apologize, fight, repeat Under emotional stress again Everyone feels some defeat Stop fighting so hard Just give it up There's no going back Life is like an empty cup I'm tired of “sorry” I'm tired of the headaches I'm tired of it all Any longer, in half I will break. Will you help me end it? Will you help me stop? Help me end the problem Help me come out on top I'm the victim I'm the loser I don't want to play this role anymore For once, I want to be the user. All they yelling All the fighting All the screaming All the bleeding It's done Thank you for everything You're the best I'm finally winning
