I’ve watched the world fade away
By seeing all of my friends give in
Now I’m so sick of this life
So tired of always being the one who’s left behind
You don’t know what it’s like to feel alone
Left with nothing but voices that haunt your mind
Spoken words of how we are free
Yet fashion is screamed at me
These chains will always bind our feet
To the judgement of who we be
Our lives are based on popularity
As I search for a way
The fog fills my empty walls
Collapsing my lungs
I’ve been smoked out by your thoughts
Of standing on top
What’s the point in staying awake?
When that’s the real nightmare
I sleep to escape this world that I hate (x2)
