What do I do to ignore whats behind me?

Do I follow my fate to escape blindly?

Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams

And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?

Do I let it go 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?

The sunlight burns the skin of sleeping men

I make the right turns but I'm 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 can't rely on myself

MYSELF! I ask why

but in my mind I find

I cant rely on myself



I can't hold on

To what I want when I'm stretched so thin

It's all too much to take in

I can't hold on

To anything watching everything spin

With thoughts of failure sinking in



If turn my back I'm defenseless

And to give into fate seems senseless

If I hide my pride and let it all go on then they'll

Take from me till 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 cant rely on myself



I can't hold on

To what I want when I'm stretched so thin

It's all too much to take in

I can't hold on

To anything watching everything spin

With thoughts of failure sinking in



How do you think

I've lost so much

I'm always afraid

That I'm out of touch

How do you expect

I will kno
