Just Can'T Stop
I don’t know what I’m doing anymore.
I don’t know what I’m here for.
I feel like I’m falling,
And I just can’t stop.
I can see myself spiraling,
But I just can’t stop.
Endlessly downward,
My life seems to be going.
No looking forward,
I feel like exploding.
Just can’t stop.
I’m watching this world pass me by,
And I just can’t figure out why.
My money I keep blowing,
And I just can’t stop.
Weed I keep on loading,
But I just can’t stop.
Sleep deprivation
Is getting the best of me.
Along with depression,
How can this be?
Just can’t stop.
I’m on an endless roller-coaster ride.
I just can’t get off; I’ve tried.
Up, down, twists and turns,
And I just can’t stop.
Going so fast it burns,
But I just can’t stop.
Too fast,
I’m going to have to bail.
Get a body cast,
I’m going to derail.
I just can’t stop.
Just can’t stop.
