Gravity.

Around us is sadness
What holds me up is madness
I can't take it anymore
My emotions are sore
I'm tired of trying
Inside I am dying
I have to escape
From a world held up with duck tape

I can't stop all the pain, I can't stop all the fights
The only time I am alive is when I sleep at night
But because of you
What I'm saying is true
I'm left looking over my shoulder
This is I war, I am no soldier

So when you go to sleep
I am going to creep
I'll cut off all my hair
And run through fields bare
I don't need all these lies to make my heart sink
Cause right now baby you have me on the brink.

If you don't want me to be ok
Then you'll always be in my way
I can't get you out of my head
You're killing me! I'm dead

And I know which way I'm going
As for you I think you're throwing
Away a chance of sanity
I'm not holding you down, its gravity!
