  • I've had enough of these selfish crys
    I hurt myself again not knowing why
    It seems so easy to leave it all behind
    And to avoid the truth I think

    I'd rather just go blind
    When everything erupts
    My life has come unglued
    And the ties that bind have left me
    What am I to do

    Can't seem to recognize
    That stare behind those eyes
    Who is this man I see
    Who's looking back at me

    Can't focus through the pain
    And I am fading into nothing
    The reflection must get clearer
    Then it apears to me right now

    I think I'm cracking up,
    I think I've lost my mind
    I hurt myself again still not don't know why
    I end up the same way each and every time

    Can't avoid the truth there's just
    Nowhere to run and hide
    When everything erupts
    Just like I knew it would

    Been down here long enough
    It never felt that good
    Is this what I've become
    My life has come unglued

    And the ties that bind have left me
    What am I to do?

    Can't seem to recognize
    That stare behind those eyes
    Who is this man I see
    Who's looking back at me

    Can't focus through the pain
    And I am fading into nothing
    The reflection must get clearer
    Then it appears to me right now

    There must be someone I can see
    There's got to be something for me
    Showing love, let it go free
    I know its there waiting on me
    Let it out, let it go free

    Can't seem to recognize
    That stare behind those eyes
    Who is this man I see
    Who's looking back at me

    Can't focus through the pain
    And I am fading into nothing
    The reflection must get clearer
    Then it apears to me right now Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
