I Don't Want To Take This Anymore
The wall keeps closing in
Keeping everything within
Time keeps marching on
Seems all hope is gone
I've struggled to be free
From the darkness inside me
No key to unlock this door
And I don't want to take this anymore
Dark clouds is all I see
Slowly suffocating me
Wrapped up inside myself
Knowing theres nothing left
Tears fall like gentle rain
They can't camouflage my pain
Too many to keep score
And I don't want to take this anymore
I search for a little light
There is none in sight
Sinking deeper in despair
I look but no ones there
Time slipping through my hands
No one understands
My life in pieces on the floor
And I don't want to take this anymore

Keeping everything within
Time keeps marching on
Seems all hope is gone
I've struggled to be free
From the darkness inside me
No key to unlock this door
And I don't want to take this anymore
Dark clouds is all I see
Slowly suffocating me
Wrapped up inside myself
Knowing theres nothing left
Tears fall like gentle rain
They can't camouflage my pain
Too many to keep score
And I don't want to take this anymore
I search for a little light
There is none in sight
Sinking deeper in despair
I look but no ones there
Time slipping through my hands
No one understands
My life in pieces on the floor
And I don't want to take this anymore
