See the Sun
I don't care about tomorrow
I can't remember yesterday,
I don't know the last time that I didn't feel this way
I can't count the lonely nights
When I'm surrounded by myself
And the only friend to comfort me is the bottle on the shelf
I wonder how the hell I've gotten here
Where did I go wrong?
I can't help but think that I've been broken all along
I can't count the friends who've left
or the ones that are yet to go
Numbing the pain with mindlessness is all I have come to know
I haven't felt anything real for a long time
and hope is a distant memory
Still life continues to go on, it just continues without me
Hopeless, helpless, out of reach
Everyday's a fight
The blurry days are bad enough, even worse, the nights.
I am struggling for the answer
I am searching for the cure
I look for God to heal me with his love, free and pure
My mind, my soul, my family
Everything's at stake
I don't know how to make it right and fix all my mistakes
Help me, heal me, hear my prayer
I don't know what to do
I know I can't go on like this, I give myself to you
Waiting for a brighter day
Maybe tomorrow is the one
That darkness fades and shadows clear so
I can see the sun
