Get up

Now I’m falling faster than anyone could ever follow,

And I’m not sure how you come in on all of this,

I know you mean so much without saying too much,

So I try to get up without moving a muscle,

It will be my hopefulness that kills me in the end,

I am forcing myself to stay down, as if I wanted it

Don’t you know I am afraid of everything

And even alone and I am  feeling unease

I’m everything I never wanted to be

Finishing was never a challenge, yet time was never accounted for

‘Cause my mind plays tricks on me,

Analyze why this dark hole always wins

With words of black, I feel there is no going back

Like a disease that spreads onto all the ones I love,

I am the cause and the cure

Singing together, ‘darling, haven’t we been here before?’

With my face against the pavement I try to gather it up

But once in the clouds, I rob all the angels without any manners

Who would have thought I suffered without any scars?

I will not allow myself to continue to fall

‘Cause I’m afraid death is my only other option

But even then I’m selfish and causing pain

So why don’t I just get up, and try not to complain
