The worst pain is when a tear leaves my eye I try to fight it cause a grown man shouldn't cry But when they start it seems I can't make it end and when I do they just start up again I try to fight it I get in the stance it takes my strength leaves me deep in a trance It suffocates me till I wither and wilt it's the strongest feeling I've ever felt Feel like a block that is being whittled away but I'm still holding out for a peaceful day Sometimes crushing sometimes subtly it weighs me down and leaves me empty Save a peace for me Fall to my knees past time to pray my lips are sealed shut got noting to say I spend my time trying to forget all of the times that I felt like sh** Too many things that I did for fun now I know I should have never done I look around there's nothing to see I look inside I'm all empty Running on empty, so damn empty, hungry and empty, please save a peace for me So many times I've wondered why so many times I didn't care if I'd die I learned the things that a sane man don't know I've lived in places where the law's scared to go I've seen lives prematurely be spent I've bent my finger with full intent I've had more than one intended for me but I guess it wasn't meant to be Save a peace for me save a peace for me I look around there's nothing to see I look inside I don't like me I spend my time trying to forget all of the times that I felt like sh** I may be proud but I need a lift I'm holding out for a fulfilling gift When I'm warmed by an inner smile and that my soul is shining all the while Save a peace for me, save a peace for me, save a peace for me, save a peace for me Please save a peace for me!
