lyrics

Stripped these words of there meaning,
new beginnings all seem to end
wake up cold scared as hell, afraid to face the world again
take these pills for head so wish you weren't better off dead
whats wrong that we numb ourselves just to get by,
and we forget to ask the questions why
I don't know what the problem is,
But its flowing through me,
and it keeps me awake at night,
affects the lives that we lead,
I know what your thinkin, you've got a hold of me,
I know what you're thinkin but I'm not blind I can see
past the walls put in front of me on top of me
past what is thought that I should be who should I be
Cast in a mold put on a shelf on display for everyone to see
wake up cold scared as hell afraid to face the world again
Cuz nothing really matters, my dreams have been shattered on the wall
Whats wrong that numb ourselves from the world, so we forget that we're misunderstood
I don't know what the problem is,
But its flowing through me,
and it keeps me awake at night,
affects the lives that we lead,
I know what your thinkin, you've got a hold of me,
I know what you're thinkin but I'm not blind I can see
