I hate that someone with a smile so bright
Fights so hard to fake it, so many times
Tries not to break it, or make it fade away

I hate that days are so much longer than nights
How I hide deprivation by lighting up my tired eyes
And watch up above as the sky tries to turn itself grey

I'm looking for answers that I'll never find
Life's a story that I'll never tell (Never tell)
I'm scared of the things inside my own mind
I'm losing what I knew so well

My sanity's on a thread that is so close to breaking
I live my life wondering if I'll see the new dawn arising
Watch my back, hide my tears
Face the facts, it's right here
The end

Don't you love how I sit here and count
Seconds, and hours, the time we can't live without
I'm wasting yours, I'm losing mine

And I try to be brave for today's sake
Since heaven can't help me,
And hell's only pushed me away
And I know I can't be the one to change fate's mind

I'll watch myself wither, chase after the future
A lullaby I'll never hear
Or end it tonight, giving up my last fight
But life's something I've learned to hold dear

My sanity's on a thread that is so close to breaking
I live my life wondering if I'll see the new dawn arising
Watch my back, hide my tears
Face the facts, it's right here
The end

The days race on by
And there's not enough nights
And there's so many things
I won't know

2, 304 hours await me
That's 200, 000 more minutes of breathing
And 8, 294, 000 goodbyes

I looked for the answers that I couldn't find
Life's a story I've already told
