Myself

Myself



What do I do to ingore them behind me?

Do I follow my instincts blindly?

Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams

And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?

Do I sit here 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 nobody and live in lonliness?

Because I cant hold on when Im stretched so thin

I make the right moves but Im lost within

I put on my daily facade but then

I just end up getting hurt again



By myself

Myself

I ask why

But in my mind I find

I cant rely on myself

Myself

I ask why

But in my mind I find

I cant rely on myself



I cant look around

Its too much to take in

I cant hold back

When Im stretched so thin

I cant slow down

Watching everything spin

I cant look back

Starting over again



If I turn my back Im defenceless

And to go blindly seems senceless

If I hide my pride and let it all go on

Then theyll take from me til everything is gone

If I let them go Ill be outdone

But if I try to catch them Ill be outrun

If Im killed by the questions like a cancer

Then Ill be buried in the silence of the answer



By myself

Myself

I ask why

But in my mind I find

I cant rely on myself

Myself

I ask why

But in my mind I find

I cant rely on myself



I cant look around

Its too much to take in

I cant hold back

When Im stretched so thin

I cant slow down

Watching everything spin

I cant look back

Starting over again



Dont you know

I cant tell you how to make it go

No matter what I do,
