Regret pounds my eyes
As the light floods in from a pale, cold sky
My back is aching, my heart is racing
Can I make it to tonight?
Through the curtains searching eyes
A spotlight on my own demise
Crying is a human end
Synthetic is my only friend
I’m getting up, it’s time to go
I will not let my fear show
All I know is I’m broken…..
If you can see my pain, under the mask of being “ok”
Then you will know my pain
After what’s left of me has washed away.
Did you ever think about what I told you?
Did you ever wonder what kind of monster I must be?
Now I’ve come to realize, through all the truth and all the lies
We are the path that led us here
The joy, the pain, through all the years
And now although it’s time to leave, I offer you this small reprieve
You can’t fix what’s broken
You can see my pain, after the mask is torn away
I will find my way
After what’s left of me has washed away.
All those times you helped to keep me sane
All those times you forgave, again
The reason I’m alive is because your love is so strong, so strong
You can see my pain, after the mask is torn away
I will find my way
After what’s left of me has washed away.
You must know my shame, and the reasons why I could not die today
