start over

[negro]

its like everyday im so stressed out, i dont know what to do
watch the world fly away while im drowning in a pool
feels like im trapped, someone get me out
trying to fend for myself but don't know which way's out

which way do I go, everything I believe has gone south
I look in the mirror don't know what I'm about
what do I stand for? what do i bring to the table
every word feels like poison out of my mouth

hurting people seems to be my only don
those dreams of being great are so far gone
only the ashes remain, the broken pieces on the floor
my nights are once again cold, so alone

just these tears that run down my face onto my pillow
feels so strange, how could things be the same
12 years this depression has held me back like a cage
wishing i could change my name, get on a plane and get away

forget about the pressure and the pain
somewhere where I could fail on my own
instead of paying back peoples debts that I don't owe
their expectations that went unfulfilled
now riding on me, i wish I could leave

somewhere far, where no one will know my face
leave my past behind, and start over once again...
