You're always playing games with me, But there's no time for make believe. And I promise that I'm still breathing, But I know you're too misleading. Every time, the memories flood back, Another day, another night I'm trapped. You won't fade out so easily! (So easily) Can't breathe! Can't sleep! These thoughts, they're killing me! Can't hear a word you're saying! I'm on a fight til you realize, You can't win with your feelings, This is our time to feel alive! How do I know who I can trust? With my heart broken way too much. Where do I run when they take hold? These thoughts that I can't control! Every time, the memories flood back, Another day, another night I'm trapped. You won't fade out so easily! (So easily) Can't breathe! Can't sleep! These thoughts, they're killing me! Can't hear a word you're saying! I'm on a fight til you realize, You can't win with your feelings, This is our time to feel alive!

Have you ever felt so weak, That you tremble as you try to sleep? And the ghosts of tomorrow haunt your head. (Haunt your head) Have you ever been so awake, Alone and cold and afraid to say? You don't even feel safe in your own bed. This is not what I had planned, Headfirst in a place where I can't pretend, Even dreams cry sometimes. I don't want to go to sleep ever again Have you ever been in a dream, worse than waking up to reality? In a room where there's no hope for control. (For control) Have you ever felt so alone, That your hearts in knots and you feel unknown? And these dreams have been eating at your soul. This is not what I had planned, Headfirst in a place where I can't pretend, Even dreams cry sometimes. I don't want to go sleep ever again. Even dreams cry sometimes. I don't want to go to sleep ever again.

You look lost, and what a shame, For the kids who threw their dreams away. But you won't stop, there's no giving in. Tell the world how I'm your favorite sin. As the walls grow cold, you may feel alone, Point the finger all you want, but you're still on your own. There's no stopping now, her voice rings through your head, So keep pretending you can run from the things she said. This is the last time, You've got nowhere to hide, There is no running away. When will you see? With blinded eyes, The truth that hides behind these lies. My everything? More like nothing at all! Guess who won't be here to catch you when you fall? As the sky grows dim, and our hearts speed up, You start to think of all the times when it got too rough, No there's no stopping now, her voice rings through your head, So keep pretending that you can run from the things she said. This is the last time, You've got nowhere to hide, There is no running away.

And I, will float along until I find my place. Til I, get washed away and drown out with the waves. This time I can't answer to your call, The currents pulling me down, but I won't fall. And I won't let this anchor me down, Not this time, no not right now! At a loss for words, I'm drifting past the shore. I threw my fears into the sea, and it cast me out free. So bottle up these words, and toss them overboard, You have my soul, it's yours to keep, But this heart still beats for me. And I, have found a brand new home, Somewhere so far off that there's no road. So pack up and find a different place, You call this growing up? Give me a break! And I, think its time to say goodbye. I'm pretty sick of the way you always lie. So watch as the ocean takes you out, No i won't sink, no not right now! At a loss for words, I'm drifting past the shore. I threw my fears into the sea, and it cast me out free. So bottle up these words, and toss them overboard, You have my soul, it's yours to keep, But this heart still beats for me. And I'll be the first one to let you know, I'll be the first one to let you know, And I'll be the first one to let you know, And I'll be the one. At a loss for words, I'm drifting past the shore. I threw my fears into the sea, and it cast me out free. So bottle up these words, and toss them overboard, You have my soul, it's yours to keep, But this heart still beats for me.
