Lyrics
How long will I keep this candid camera smile?
My muscles hurt, I better rest for a while
Breathing is the only thing that keeps alive
All this oxygen, crushes me, leaves me so tight
Let me out
My pain is leading, I got no control from now
Don't try to help me, I don't want to put you down
All my reasons will be misunderstood
I wish you well, in here there's nothing good
My heart is rotten with all the worst kind of disease
It tries to be better but all it can do is bleed
I'm so tried of myself
Oh God please take me away and bring someone else
One of my friends believes in what she reads
And she's always talking about the end of the century
But listen, have you ever stopped to realize
That if it happened there would be none to feel alone?
No pain at all
I should be going, so much damage I've done
So many tears and still a lot more to come
Excuse, don't push my wheel chair
I don't want to go anywhere
My heart is rotten with all the worst kind of disease
It tries to be better but all it can do is bleed
I'm so tried of myself
Oh God please take me away and bring someone else
Alone, I don't care
And now all I remember is the smell of your hair
