Drowned

by Chris Rodriguez   Sep 19, 2006


Been through so many heartbreaks
Wear them all on my sleeve
I've had too many doubts
and I feel it again
It's something I can't shake off
I think of her and how it got this way
I try to reassure myself that I'm right when I talk
When I wake up the zombie starts to walk

Why do you assume that I am weak
I've been through all sorts of hell
Seen things you never seen
Touched hearts that were dead
Gave hope for those who almost drowned

When I am looking at you
I'm not all there
I swear someday it will be better
I'll be there someday

What's the use of it now?
I can't find an exit from this place
I never show a sign of my anger
Maybe I should
But what will that do?

I'm so many different faces from one day to the next
Each one is the same
The pain won't go away
No matter what I create
It never gives me clarity
To what I need to know

When the flood consumes your reality
You're hundreds of minds thinking at once
Saying maybe everything you need is gone
If you wake up to find only questions
Be the answer to your own life
You have to survive
So don't let them win
