Understanding
This house is driving me crazy...
This house is tearing me apart...
Without my words I'm nothing...
like I'm in a sea of sharks...
No one understands me...
No one knows what's running through my mind...
In a corner of darkness, that's where I stay all the time...
I bury my tears, worries and fears in a draw beneath the floorboards in my room...
I clean up all my hopes and dreams with an old mop and a broom...
And now you know my story and how everyone ignored me...
My words are real concise...
and that's how I'm saying goodnight to a past I once knew...
Haven't you got a clue...
of the truth and understanding that I've been through?...
