I'm awake and I'm alive
In a desolate state of mind
I'm left with all this ignorance
It's my obvious demise.
Everything I worked for
And everything I know
Is bound to hit the floor
And I don't welcome the unknown
I don't want this to happen again
But I don't see this ending
I'm the fool in this story
I'm giving up on it all
I don't want this to happen again
But I feel it's never ending
Yeah, yeah
I'm giving up on it all
Daunting as it is
My head is not quite right
I don't see why I waste my time
In this place that I don't like
And I am not too hopeful
A pessimist at heart
I drown in all these fucking thoughts
I'm broken and falling apart
I don't want this to happen again
But I don't see this ending
I'm the fool in this story
I'm giving up on it all
I don't want this to happen again
But I feel it's never ending
Yeah, yeah
I'm giving up on it all
I'm telling you I'm not the same
I want it, need it now

I’m awake and I’m alive
In a desolate state of mind
I’m left with all this ignorance
It’s my obvious demise.
Everything I worked for
And everything I know
Is bound to hit the floor
And I don’t welcome the unknown
I don’t want this to happen again
But I don’t see this ending
I’m the fool in this story
I’m giving up on it all
I don’t want this to happen again
But I feel it’s never ending
Yeah, yeah
I’m giving up on it all
Daunting as it is
My head is not quite right
I don’t see why I waste my time
In this place that I don’t like
And I am not too hopeful
A pessimist at heart
I drown in all these fucking thoughts
I'm broken and falling apart
I don’t want this to happen again
But I don’t see this ending
I’m the fool in this story
I’m giving up on it all
I don’t want this to happen again
But I feel it’s never ending
Yeah, yeah
I’m giving up on it all
I’m telling you I’m not the same
I want it, need it now
