reverse life
Let me in, your heart is mine
Let me out it’s dark as sin
I drink my sorrows
I smoke my problems
There’s no tomorrow
Todays gone
It’s a haze. Im in a daze
Can’t sleep, can’t stay awake
Can’t dream, cant seem to grasp reality
Can’t feel but emotions seem to come naturally
Can’t smile but I can’t frown
Can’t cry, cant laugh
Can’t see but I’m on this path
To your heart
In the dark but it’s light
I can’t start but I won’t stop
I’m on bottom but I’m on top
I went left but it felt right
I feel high but so low
I go fast in slow mo
I feel things but I’m so numb
I’ve done things that can’t be undone
Can’t speak can’t heal
Can’t tell what’s real
Can’t hurt can’t help
Can’t live can’t die
Can’t lie can’t confess
It’s your heart I need
Mine is dead
Mind gone spirit still here
can’t go on won’t quit
I’m feel new but so used to it
Can’t fake I’m to real
Todays gone tomorrows
