I keep the pressure locked up
try to push it under my bed
unrelenting pursuit of my success
it plagues my nightmares
and now everything just tares.
I can't get no rest.
shake the feeling so it won't last
every night, pressing down so tight.
can't even catch my breath.
the stability gone, no foundation to stand
its raping me of my fantasies
no childhood dreams
constraining me are life's complexities
all it's simplicities now concealed
don't even know how to feel
somebody help me remember
what matters most... I made my butter,
now give me the toast.
now its the daylight,
and the mood is right.
my melodies carry me away
like I am a stray astranged to the night.
a drum of a lullaby, so I won't cry.
However, the sunshine now
only reminds me of the rain.
do I run till I feel no pain
I gotta follow my heart
though its deep and its dark.
I just don't know where to start
waiting for someone to guide me the way
all they do is lead me astray.
Make me strong before the end
for at night, I only loose my sight
and my willingness to fight.
Just feelin some of lifes complexities at the moment. Doing a little soul searching but I guess I got lost.
I wanted to add to the list.... Don't know how I could've forgotten these guys!
