Agreeing with what you say
I’m always like that
To get away from pain
Doing what you say
I’m always like that
To run away from there
Where shadows hide
Slowly
Wearing me away
Forcing me to say no
Where screams resound
Loudly
Yearning in despair
Crying out to be heard
I don’t wanna live my life this way
Like fake
Forever
I don’t wanna give myself away
Back to pain
Not ever
Pretending it’s ok
You’re always like that
Trapped in an endless game
Proving others wrong
You’re always like that
Could you go away from where
The shadows hide
Slowly
Wearing you away
Stopping you from letting go
Where screams resound
Loudly
Yearning in despair
Crying that you’ll be alone
I don’t wanna live my life this way
Like fake
Forever
No
I don’t wanna give myself away
Back to pain
Not ever
I don’t wanna live it like that
I don’t wanna give myself away
I don’t wanna lose my way
No
Fall back to
The pain again
I don’t wanna live my life this way
I don’t wanna give myself away
To pain again
I don’t wanna live my life this way
(To pain again)
I don’t wanna give myself away
(To pain again)
