Lyric

Alone

One Eye Closed

The medicine is setting in

My lungs gasp for oxygen

And blood fills my throat

I drown 'til I float

My sunken heart-shaped by erosion

I can't stop myself

I find that I run for the window, the window

I can't trust myself

Voices start to echo "you reap what you sow"

I can't save myself

I'm stuck in life, between the surfaces and the burrows

Bury my deep with my sorrows

All I'm looking for now deep inside is another day

I'm bleeding and pleading for a silver lining

I'm sitting and waiting for some light to shine in

It's harder to breathe tonight

So I toughen up my skin so I can fight

I can't stop myself

I find that I run for the window, the window

I can't trust myself

Voices start to echo "you reap what you sow"

I can't save myself

I'm stuck in life, between the surfaces and the burrows

Buried with my soul, bury my soul

I'll carry myself

Isn't it amazing how I spent my life praying

Yet I'm deprived, all empty inside, and I'm petrified

All my life I searched for

Answers and for a mentor

And books hidden within broken, opened golden sunken drawers

My eyes open but I can't see

What life lies just ahead of me

Oh God, all I ask for now is that you don't

Let me sleep again alone with my bed

Don't ask me, cause I can't follow through with God's plans

I ain't good enough for God's plans

(Don't) let me sleep again in my bed

Don't ask me, cause I can't follow through with God's plans

I ain't good enough for God's plans

I ain't good enough

I ain't good enough for God's plans

I ain't good enough

(Hands crossed, open one eye)

(Hands crossed, open one)
