Myself

Myself

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 'em 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 façade but then

I just end up getting hurt again

By myself (myself)

I ask why, but in my mind

I find I can't rely on myself (myself)

I ask why, but in my mind

I find I can't rely on myself

I can't look around

It's too much to take in

I can't hold back

When I'm stretched so thin

I can't slow down

Watching everything spin

I can't look back

Starting over again

If I turn my back I'm defenseless

And to go blindly seems senseless

If I hide my pride and let it all go on

Then they'll take from me 'til everything is gone

If I let them go I'll be outdone

But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun

If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer

Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer

By myself (myself)

I ask why, but in my mind

I find I can't rely on myself (myself)

I ask why, but in my mind

I find I can't rely on myself

I can't look around

It's too much to take in

I can't hold back

When I'm stretched so thin

I can't slow down

Watching everything spin

I can't look back

Starting over again

Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you

Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you

(Know) I can't tell you how to make it

(Go) No matter what I do, how hard I

(Try) I can't seem to convince myself

(Why) I'm stuck on the outside, don't you

(Know) I can't tell you how to make it

(Go) No matter what I do, how hard I

(Try) I can't seem to convince myself

(Why) I'm stuck on the outside, don't you

(Know) I can't tell you how to make it

(Go) No matter what I do, how hard I

(Try) I can't seem to convince myself

(Why) I'm stuck on the outside, don't you

(Know) I can't tell you how to make it

(Go) No matter what I do, how hard I

(Try) I can't seem to convince myself

(Why) I'm stuck on the outside, don't you

(Know) I can't tell you how to make it

(Go) No matter what I do, how hard I

(Try) I can't seem to convince myself

(Why) I'm stuck on the outside, don't you

(Know) I can't tell you how to make it

(Go) No matter what I do, how hard I

(Try) I can't seem to convince myself

(Why) I'm stuck on the outside, don't you
