lyrics

Have you ever felt like this?
Like the walls were closing in
I’m locked up in my mind
It’s killing me not killing time
And then you play along pretending everything is fine
Keeping up appearances and losing track of all my lies

Like I am doin’ great and everything’s OK
But it’s not, I just don’t know how to say
I live in a steady state of pain, contempt or apathy
And when I’m alone I’m begging please

Take me away from this fucked up place
Far away somewhere I can escape
I’ve been gone for way too long
I’ve been payin’ for other’s wrongs
Put me back where I belong right back in my loved ones’ arms
I don’t know if I can take another day
Someone just please take me away

From this place so far from home
From these nights spent all alone
In the darkness there’s truth with myself but never you
I couldn’t burden you with everything I hide inside

I don’t care how you ask, I’ll always say that “everything is fine”
and I am “doin’ great” and everything’s “OK,” but it’s not I just don’t know how to say
I live in a steady state of pain, contempt or apathy
And silent screams beggin’ please take me away
