Here I go again

Slipping further away

Letting go again

Of what keeps me in place

I like it here

But it scares me to death

There is nothing here

Hope is always fear

For the pain it may cost

And I have searched for the reason to go on

I’ve tried and I’ve tried

But it’s taking me so long

I might be better off

Closing my eyes

And God will come looking for me

I can see myself

I look peaceful and pale

But underneath

I can barely inhale

I can hear myself singing that song

Over and over until it belongs to me
