lyrics

I've spent my life waiting
Just to live like I'm wasting
Away like a ship lost at sea
And the only one to blame is me
Trapped by bad memories
Trashing my life
Triggered constantly
And I don't want to be dragged down by these demons
I don't want to be dragged down by these
Demons
You drag me by the wrist
into the rippled river
I close my eyes
Cause here lies one name thats writ in the water
I think I know what's to come
But this time you left me on my own
Now I'm so far gone
And if you've seen what I see
You'll know life ain't easy
There's no reflection in the mirror
How could I be so blind?
In my mind’s eye
You make me feel so invisible
I ask the mysteries of life
In my mind’s eye
And I hope that one day
Someday I won't be afraid
I’m so lost and alone
I can’t think of a place to call home
I feel so empty
With no plug to fill the void
I live so scared
With no guidance, no help.
No one to talk to.
But it's all in my head
The only one who's really judging you is yourself
I'm slowly becoming one of them.
Keep trying to fight myself
There's no reflection in the mirror
How could I be ‘so blind?
In my mind’s eye
You make me feel so invisible
I ask the mysteries of life
In my mind’s eye
