Walking Away

It's hard to reach you.
it's hard to read you,
That mask is so heavy and yet you still manage to breathe.
Slowly but surely you'll lose the one who's underneath.
One more fight, one more try,
And you say it's all wrong now?
Babe it could be worse, take a look around.

You bury yourself in that deep dark hole,
You never reached for another soul.
I've tried endlessly to offer my help
But now I just don't think I can console.
You're drowning in self pity,
And it kills me to watch you fade,
The next time you need me,,
It might be too late.

It's hard to love you.
It's hard to want to,
Your depression escalates
Now you're biding your time
One more time, one more lie,
And you think it's all wrong now?
Babe, keep sinking steady,
And you'll surely be buried alive.

Such a shame, such a waste,
And now it's all but gone,
Now that you've let yourself go.
All the pain's, more then you or I'll ever know
And the mask is still heavy,
But you're too far gone to even know.
