I scream out as the door slams shut and,
The house is burning down tonight cause,
The sleep full days of nightmares kill me
Through the sleepless nights of agony so,
Why is it that when I look in the mirror I see?
Everything I don't wanna be she hates me
And I can't breathe I'm falling so fast that you can't save me
Sometimes I drink myself to sleep
Knowing you're not around and,
Somehow I can not breathe
I'm choking on these lies and it's never gonna mean it
So tell me that everything's okay
I'm crazy and its never gonna mean it
So tell me that I'm okay
Cause I'm climbing a mountain just to jump right off the edge
Could someone stop this bleeding tonight because the blade of your words attack me mentally
I'll read your eyes they'll tell me your lies and it takes me on a trip to insanity and,
I can't stand this self-medication
My mind is set on exaggeration
Cause I just can't stick around this time
Why is there smoke in the room when I didn't light a cigarette?
Sometimes I drink myself to sleep
Knowing you're not around and,
Somehow I can not breathe
I'm choking on these lies and it's never gonna mean it
So tell me that everything's okay
I'm crazy and its never gonna mean it
So tell me that I'm okay
Cause I'm climbing a mountain just to jump right off the edge
Will be here when the smoke is clear?
I'm dependent on something that was never there
You be the Queen and I'll be your slave
Cause I'm living in a fairytale and dreams never do come true
Sometimes I drink myself to sleep
Knowing you're not around and,
Somehow I can not breathe
I'm choking on these lies and it's never gonna mean it
So tell me that everything's okay
I'm crazy and its never gonna mean it
So tell me that I'm okay
Cause I'm climbing a mountain just to jump right off the edge
