Seconds slowly tick by
Alone again
Fading like I hold no power
I take a drink from this glass
As I start to fall into the past
I cry for a moment
Scream for a minute
Finding all I wanted is here for a reason
Maybe I am crazy
But I am not going to believe that
Frantic, I push myself into a dream
I wish I was higher
Higher is the search
That place is all I wish for
For a moment I was there
For a day I was lost
Tomorrow I will be around
With a permanent frown
Another dark hour is not long away
It has no meaning for me
This game you play
I’ve been dealing with the pain
Ripping me to pieces
As I think about you, I suffer
I wish there were better days we spent together
If I gave you another chance you would lie
Pushing you away is all I would do
For a moment I could trust you
For a day I could love you
Tomorrow I would despise you
