From the recording Prolonging the Agony
Lyrics
I shed a tear once in awhile, you're not here but I try to smile
Even on the darkest days I see the sunshine through the clouds
All I see is a loaded gun pointed back at me, and I never thought I'd face these fears
alone
There's always times where I sit here and wonder why, this whole thing has never gone afloat
And I tell myself how
I don't wanna be tied down right now
I have my reasons
I don't wanna play these games
It's no mystery to me
How we struggle with the pain and we fall down
I don't wanna hold your hand if you're afraid
To stay here with me
I don't wanna take this chance
If you're too ashamed
I'm only coping with the pain as I move on
All I see in this town of cruel reality
Is a big old bag of worries and broken dreams
There's nothing more to say
You gave up on just everything
No telling lies you gave um all away
And I tell myself how
I don't wanna be tied down right now
I have my reasons
I don't wanna play these games
It's no mystery to me
How we struggle with the pain and we fall down
I don't wanna hold your hand if you're afraid
To stay here with me
I don't wanna take this chance
If you're too ashamed
I'm only coping with the pain as I move on
I don't wanna be tied down right now
I have my reasons
I don't wanna play these games
It's no mystery to me
How we struggle with the pain and we fall down
I don't wanna hold your hand if you're afraid
To stay here with me
I don't wanna take this chance
If you're too ashamed
I'm only coping with the pain as I move on
I don't wanna be tied down right now
(I have my reasons)
I don't wanna play these games
(It's no mystery to me)
We struggle with the pain
I don't wanna hold your hand if you're afraid
To stay here with me
I don't wanna take this chance
If you're too ashamed
I'm only coping with the pain as I move on
