For the life of me, I can't recall Just when this life in me meant anything at all I feel this isolation Screaming, at the end of my rope I see the degradation Clinging, to the end of my rope Once again the last in line Burning, the end of my rope Who cares if I survive? I felt the same way, some time before Although this time, my feeling's pure Life is what I make it Come to my senses Before it's too late And hopefully some sanity returns It's real, this constant danger Nearing, the end of my rope The fear, looking over my shoulder Swinging, from the end of my rope I take the blade and hack away Slicing, at the end of my rope And as I fall I hope to see Another day, and this time it's all for me These things that I feel Are hard to keep down inside Try to determine the truth and the way All of us should try It's taking so long And I've got but one of these lives To live it so wrong Is to throw sand in the eyes
