lyrics
yeah by now, you should have learned how far you could’ve pushed me
don’t you know, you could have sent me away
you could’ve sent me away
but it’s far too late,yeah, it’s far too late
starin’ at the wall, my face is turnin’ blue, i’ve got
to get away, maybe find something new, i don’t
know where to go, no place seems to be right, i’ve gotta
hold on to something to get through the night
you see now i have made mistakes, but not like this before
i used to be able to search and find my way to the door, i don’t
think i can make it, see, he’s coming again,
wish i had someone to turn to, wish i had a friend
no where to go, but i have got to find a better way to be
i gotta get away quick before you find me
i’m on the wall again
i’m on the wall again, here it comes!
ha, ha, ha! i’m starin’ at the wall now
i think i’m gonna fall now
don’t let me go too far now
i think i’ve gone too far
better ask yourself if you know what you’ve done
because you’re here now my friend and there’s nowhere to run now
take a look and think ‘bout the mistake that you made
because your present situation is now here to stay
i’ve got to ask myself, why?
i’ve got to... (Tom goes psycho)
your actions wont take you very far
no where to run with your defenses left aside
your body is killing you, itself from inside
given up looking, never know what it is
i’m certain of one thing, that it definitely isn’t this
i’ve tried and i’ve died and yeah, i’ve always come up short
only things that i’ve found are of this psychosomatic sort
of things i could do without, of things all the same
if i’ve learned one single thing, its that life is not a game
i’ve got to ask myself, am i the only one?
cannot be the only one
i know i cannot be the only one
