I am sorry
I try
Try to be me
Try to get past this
This part of me
This awful time
Time to be
Time of truth
Truth be told
Truth to hold
Hold so tight
Hold too tight
Tight, my lungs
Tight, can't breathe
Breathe, take it easy
Breathe, it's getting harder
Harder to think
Harder to sleep
Sleep on the pain
Sleep through the stress
Stress, always there
Stress, a weight
Weight, hard to hold
Weight, why do you ask
Ask me why
Ask me those questions
Questions you throw
Questions, no answers
Answers I need
Answers I wish I had
Had for you
Had to wish
Wish for comfort
Wish for
For something sweet
For something right
Right, meaning okay
Right all along
Along with the help
Along with the torture
Torture, they kill
Torture, they chain
Chain me up
Chain and lock
Lock my tears
Lock my pain
Pain, I need to forget
Pain, I can't withstand
Forget, withstand
Forget, withstand
