I open my eyes

I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light.

I can't remember how

I can't remember why

I'm lying here tonight

And I can't stand the pain

And I can't make it go away

No I can't stand the pain



*CHORUS*

How could this happen to me

I've made my mistakes

got nowhere to run

The night goes on as I'm fading away

I'm sick of this life

I just wanna scream

How could this happen to me



Everybody's screaming

I try to make a sound but no one hears me

I'm slipping off the edge

I'm hanging by a thread

I wanna start this over again

So I try to hold

On to a time when 

Nothing mattered

And I can't explain

What happened and I can't erase the things that I've done

No I can't



*CHORUS*

How could this happen to me

I've made my mistakes

got nowhere to run

The night goes on as I'm fading away

I'm sick of this life

I just wanna scream

How could this happen to me



I've made my mistakes

got nowhere to run

The night goes on as I'm fading away

I'm sick of this life

I just wanna scream

How could this happen to me
