now i lay me down
tried so long to forget what i'm trying for
my heart laid bare
all that i wanted is absent
in the comfort of your arms
i can shut it all out
let it grow cold, let it fall away
give me a reason, help me
help me wash it all away
help me wash it all away
ive grown to hate this life
everything i can't make right
all the promises that i've failed
everynight and everywhere i am
all the dreams i can't let go
every time i thought i should've known
everything i can't make right
everything that made me hate this life...
in these waking hours
sleepless with apprehension
the heart still beats, the lips still speak
but the words fall dry
dry and useless like a smile from a friend that you missed
shut it all out, let it grow cold
let it fall away again
give me a reason, tell me
tell me everything's gonna be alright
everything's gonna be alright
there's some things you never knew
there's some things you just don't do
some things you can't get through
oh no
don't want to hate this life
