Sinking Ship
Locations
I never know what to say when I need to
I only know that this feeling inside is tearing me apart,
I can’t do
I won’t do
I will never do
I hold these things very close to my heart
If only the truth, could set me free
You’d know exactly what’s on my mind,
you’d know how you hurt me this time
It just keeps on happening
This pain is maddening
For some reason I count on it, because it always seems to last
This hurt, knows where to hit me and it always strikes fast
Leaving the darkness as something I can easily recognize
It becomes stronger when you antagonize
Even after the blow, it consumes me even more so,
You don’t understand that your regrets, your fears, and your disappointments are always piled on my back
Over time, this load gets too heavy to hold and I just collapse.
To notice, not a chance, because you refuse feel these emotions for yourself,
I’m sorry, it’s not working, we can’t just put them on a shelf
So we go along and pretend everything’s fine
To be honest, my soul aches from all of the emotions you left behind
Nobody deals with them, nobody takes time to confront them, we pretend to be blind
This is why this ship is sinking
There are chips and cracks, we have failed to see, and now that a big wave has hit us, I can’t believe.
Our number one problem is money?
The crack goes deeper than that because it’s wrecked our ship,
You take all this frustration out on us, and wonder why we dipped?
Even if we had all the money in the world, you’d find I still can’t open up to you
If I could leave as soon as possible, I would.
Be a weight off your back
Let you be free from all the things I lack
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry
But these words mean nothing
They never help anything.
You don’t believe them.
And I can’t prove it to you unless I’m dead.
Maybe this will work, maybe you’ll understand, that I’m trying so hard to grow as fast as I can
But it never seems to be enough, I always seem to get stuck
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry
I’m trying really hard to tell to you, that we can improve our luck.
If you open your mind, you can open your eyes
You said that once, we can fix the problem if we really try.
