[Verse 1]
Praying in the dark for a light
I’ve found there’s no escape from my mind
Replaying every word that was said
Thought it wasn’t really over I guess
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s been so long since I’ve felt right
Can’t pull through
I’ve got to hold my head up high
But what’s the use
[Chorus]
Fool them with an empty smile
My state of mind is collapsing in
Truth hides behind those eyes
But this defense is rubbing thin
So hard so hard when I’m walking away
When I know good and well
There’s no reason to stay
When I know but I can’t just walk away
[Verse 2]
Maybe I should give it more time
Makе myself believе I’m alright
That’s how I deal with my problems
Oh don’t act like you ain’t got em'
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s been so long since I’ve felt right
Can’t pull through
I’ve got to hold my head up high
But what’s the use
[Chorus]
Fool them with an empty smile
My state of mind is collapsing in
Truth hides behind those eyes
But this defense is rubbing thin
So hard so hard when I’m walking away
When I know good and well
There’s no reason to stay
When I know but I can’t just walk away
Praying in the dark for a light
I’ve found there’s no escape from my mind
Replaying every word that was said
Thought it wasn’t really over I guess
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s been so long since I’ve felt right
Can’t pull through
I’ve got to hold my head up high
But what’s the use
[Chorus]
Fool them with an empty smile
My state of mind is collapsing in
Truth hides behind those eyes
But this defense is rubbing thin
So hard so hard when I’m walking away
When I know good and well
There’s no reason to stay
When I know but I can’t just walk away
[Verse 2]
Maybe I should give it more time
Makе myself believе I’m alright
That’s how I deal with my problems
Oh don’t act like you ain’t got em'
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s been so long since I’ve felt right
Can’t pull through
I’ve got to hold my head up high
But what’s the use
[Chorus]
Fool them with an empty smile
My state of mind is collapsing in
Truth hides behind those eyes
But this defense is rubbing thin
So hard so hard when I’m walking away
When I know good and well
There’s no reason to stay
When I know but I can’t just walk away
