C a N ' T

Can't shake this sickness,
my mind has become listless...
Can't shake this feeling of dying,
don't need anyone to be crying...
Can't wait to leave this place,
no one need see this face...
Can't wait to climb on out,
Once there was substance of amount...
Can't do this anymore,
I am about to hit the floor...
Can't do this anymore,
I want this and never more....
Can't believe I am here,
should have been gone many years...
Can't believe this is life,
I'm stricken with bitterness and strife...
All of this built up inside and
I don't think I can survive....
