Sittin' alone being afraid

Tellin' herself, "I bet Mother will come back today"

Sayin' her prayers, holdin' them tight

Reminding herself that God rewards the ones who fight

She wants to believe

Could someone save her please

It's lovin' she needs



(Chorus)



And it goes on and on and on

It goes on and on and on

All the things she (he/I) feared for so long

She (he/I) wishes they were gone but they go on and on



Havin' a drink, takin' a smoke

Emptying bottles of broken dreams and empty hopes

Cursin' the world 'cause they don't understand

Hidin' his tears 'cause that's not the way a man should act

He wants to believe

Could someone save him please

He's down on his knees



(Chorus)



Don't bother listening

No one could understand me like I do

I'm runnin' in circles

Paintin' a picture of dark, faded blues

I am incomplete

I am finding the ground beneath my feet

I'm holdin' my heart, I can't show my fear

I'm turnin' my head because I'm too scared to show my tears



These tensions inside I cannot explain

These wars inside me, they make me hurt, they bring me pain

I wanna believe

Could someone save me please

I just wanna be free



(Chorus)



But it goes on and on and on

It goes on and on and on
