This life I'm living is eating me away
I don't know how long i can take it all
i know there has to be some better way
even if it gets better a part of me is gone
all i am trying to do is what is right
but everything that is before me
it makes it hard to do it that way
but i know this is how it has to be
it is hard for me to live how i choose
and to not hurt the ones i love
it's a game i'm so afraid to lose
one more step might be one to close
only human i know this all too well
i'm not scared it only seems this way
when someone is feeling like this
it's better not to listen to what they say
putting on the face like it's alright
do not believe everything you see
think what's in front of you is light
you have no idea what's inside of me
for all you know i could be breaking down
all you know i could believe its all okay
for all you know i might soon not be around
but i'm not build that way
