So... What do you think? What do I do to ignore what's behind me? Do I follow my fate to escape blindly? Do I hide my pride away 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 none and live life in loneliness? Because 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!)

How do you think that I've lost so much? Always afraid that I'm now out of touch How do you expect I don't know what to do? When all I know is what you tell me to... 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 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 (Playing against you? I can't win!) With thoughts of failure sinking in I can't hold on...
