What do I do to ignore 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 loneliness? Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin I make the right moves but I'm lost within I put on my daily facade but then I just end up getting hurt again By myself [myself]
[x2] I ask why, but in my mind I find I cant rely on myself
[Chorus:] I cant hold on To what I want when Im stretched so thin Its all too much to take in I cant hold on To anything watching everything spin With thoughts of failure sinking in
If I Turn my back Im defenseless And to go blindly seems senseless If I hide my pride and let it all go on then theyll Take from me till 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]
[x2] I ask why, but in my mind I find I cant rely on myself
[Chorus]
How do you think Ive lost so much I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch How do you expect... I will know what to do When all I know Is what you tell me to
[x2] Dont you know I cant tell you how to make it go No matter what I do, how hard I try I cant seem to convince myself why Im stuck on the outside
[Chorus x2]
