Tunnel Vision

I feel empty, my feelings never lied

Theres nowhere inside that I can hide

I felt the train come, the ground rumble

I knew I'd be hit, so why do I crumble

I hurt and hurt yet I won't cry

But I won't let what's inside me die

I saw the light running down the track

I wasn't getting stabbed in the back

Faced the train, took the hit, knew it'd hurt

But hey, I'll get up, stand, brush off the dirt

Sure, maybe I'm missing a few bits and pieces

And sure, maybe there's something better than this

Doesn't mean I'll feel the chain as it releases

The feelings still hurt, she'll be one I miss

A chance though, some hope won't go away

I'm over here waiting for a sunrise, an impossible day

Maybe when I wake up, all of this will have faded

But I won't bother, my heart can't be persuaded.
