Decade

Ten years gone by
I've given all I've got inside
This can't be healthy
I'm running on empty
What about my peace of mind?
I'm mentally exhausted
And it feels like my wounds have been salted
It's crazy that I wanted this
Never thought that it would come to this

Don't give up
Don't give up
That's what I tell myself
You're just unlucky
Your time is coming

I keep running in place and I get nowhere
Was it all for nothing?
I see it all fall apart with my own eyes
And realize that I've been
Dropped down not ever knowing how
I ever got so high
Where's the light that made me feel alive?
Alive

The fear in my mind
Has driven all my hopes to hide
Now I'm feeling the pressure
Does it get any better?
Am I running out of time?
Now my body's exhausted
Thought I found hope but I lost it
Is it crazy that I wanted this?
Am I crazy now
Because

I keep running in place and I get nowhere
Was it all for nothing?
I see it all fall apart with my own eyes
And realize that I've been
Dropped down not ever knowing how
I ever got so high
Where's the light that made me feel alive?
Alive

But if I don't keep running
I'll never know what could have been
If I give in I kill my dignity
But if this is what it will take to make me feel whole
Then I know, know, I know
I can't give in

I keep running in place and I get nowhere
Was it all for nothing?
I see it all fall apart with my own eyes
And realize that I've been
Dropped down not ever knowing how
I ever got so high
Where's the light that made me feel alive?
Alive

I keep running in place and I get nowhere
What about my peace of mind?
I see it all fall apart with my own eyes
Am I running out of time?
Dropped down not ever knowing how
I ever got so high
Where's the light that made me feel alive?
Alive
