Lyrics:
So many feelings
Pent up in here
Left alone I’m with
The one I most fear
I’m sick and I’m tired
Of reasoning
Just want to break out
Shake off this skin
I can’t escape myself
All my problems
Loom larger than life
I can’t swallow
Another slice
Seems like my shadow
Marks every stride
Can’t learn to live with
What’s trapped inside
I can’t escape myself
So many feelings
Pent up in here
Left alone I’m with
The one I most fear
I’m sick and I’m tired
Of reasoning
Just want to break out
Shake off this skin
I can’t escape myself
