lyrics

I've been waiting out my own depression
No family no friends to call me near
I needed the pain to fuel the sorrow
But wanted so bad to fight the fear

Everyone around me all seem happy
Like they don't know whats coming around the corner
I hoped and wished that I could come and join them
But I can't shake the weight thats on my shoulders

I'm so tired
Of living alone
I'm so tired
And I'm not that old

I want to wake up
From this mess up
Make new amends of
The friends that I love
See a new sunrise
Through these dead eyes
I want to love this time
I want to feel alive

Nothing it seems can last forever
It's a war we must fight to survive
I hadn't the strength to hold a weapon
It felt much better to lay down and die

Until I woke up in the morning
And the hold world is brighter than mine
I'm so worn and I'm all torn I don't want to feel this way no more
I just need a hand across the line

I'm so tired
Of living alone
I'm so tired
And I'm not that old

I want to wake up
From this mess up
Make new amends of
The friends that I love
See a new sunrise
Through these dead eyes
I want to love this time
I want to feel alive
