It ain’t been easy, but I’m here once again
hitting the outside world with the fools and the girls
that alleviate my pain today
a placebo gone astray…
It ain’t been easy, but I’m trying hard again
crawling out in vain just to feel cold and restrained
my smiles, my lies, my carelessness.
Yes, I’m bleeding from my mouth
and my head is a big mess
I claim that I’m alright
but my words are meaningless.
I have lost my faith
I have lost my place in here
there’s no sign on my face of the life I’ve thrown away
of the chances that I had.
Yes, I’m bleeding from my mouth
and my head is a big mess
well, I claim I am alright
but my words are meaningless.
I fake it like I’m used with everything
to convince myself it’s all good:
these unfulfilled desires, this emptiness,
perhaps they will go away…
It ain’t been easy, but I’m here once again
hitting the outside world with the fools and the girls
that alleviate my pain today
a placebo gone astray…
