drowning your demons
a couple years ago we used to have a good time
we lived in the sunshine of life
untouched by your demons' darkness
but the good things in life
were never by our sides
and when I look back
I can hear them knocking at our door
how couldn't I feel their coldness
creeping into the lifes that once were ours
some days we still have a good time and it almost feels
like it never happened, but
the rays of the sun have vanished
many years ago, for a long time
I just failed to realize it
and when I look back
I can hear them knocking at our door
how couldn't I feel their coldness
creeping into the lifes that once were ours
you try to keep everyone
from seeing the void inside your soul
you try to drown your demons
they swim better than you, don't you know
you blame everyone except yourself
and you don't realize that half of it is your own fault
*piano solo*
I've had enough
I'm giving up on you
and when I look back
I can hear them knocking at our door
how couldn't I feel your coldness
creeping into the life I escaped from
for the sake of my soul
you try to make yourself believe
that you are free of guilt
you try to keep me from leaving
without seeing that I'm already gone
you often tell me that you've learned
from the mistakes you've made
but still you keep on doing
all the things that made me escape
