I used to be a straight edged kid With my head on tight My life was so proper But some where down the road I took a turn That made into a monster It seemed like over night I tossed out every rule I used to live by I used to care about myself But now it's like fuck it, I do what I feel like God forgive me I'm not a saint And I know that I've had my run I had some friends who left my side But lately I've been numb I'd take the time to tell them what I feel But I bite my tongue 'Cause I know they don't mean a thing To people who are done I just need my great escape I'm talking 'bout a quick clean getaway I don't even recognize myself anymore I feel like I have lost my self control I'm going down like a sinking ship I'm sinking. I used to be a care free guy Now I'm up every night Trying to solve my problems 3 o'clock in the morning I'm awake, eyes wide, in my bed And it feels like a coffin My chest feels heavy. My grip is weak And my mind is over crowded If people ask me if I'm okay I say, "I don't want to talk about it." God forgive me I know I need some help But I can't swallow my pride I have these secrets I choose to keep That slowly eat me alive My life has been so out of sync But outside I look like I'm fine But am I alright? "Yes". that was a lie I just need my great escape I'm talking 'bout a quick clean getaway I don't even recognize myself anymore I feel like I have lost my self control I'm sinking fast I'm sinking fast so save me if you can
