Say It Won't Be Long

(album: Dead Letter Circus - 2007)

With you these are the words, and the impressions are the same
Time hasn't left its mark
There's some way out
All in your hands
Because it's never quite too late
All I can understand
Is one day I'd sure like to be you
So say it won't be long
So please continue
I've got the gun in my hand
So say it won't be long

I can see there is light
I cannot find a way
Stuck here thinking if I had just tried to again
I can see you inside
But I cannot find my way

It's true
These are the terms
And the concessions are the same
The line hasn't crept this far
There's no way out
All in my head
For my obsessions are innate
Tell me you understand this

Someday I'd sure like to be you
So say it won't be long
So please continue
I've got the gun in my hand
So say it won't be long

I can see there is light
I cannot find a way
Stuck here thinking if I had just tried to again
I can see you inside
But I cannot find my way

Now I feel my confidence imploding
My sense of self worth grown to loathing
I am defeated thinking forward
And I keep falling

Someone help me to find that one piece of me
That I left here safe in case I lost my way
Pull me up but let me go before it breaks
I face this feeling alone,
To defeat this fear on my own
I'm ok but say it won't be long

Now I feel my confidence is growing
My sense of self worth is unfolding
I am now fearless facing forward
So I start crawling
Facing my darkness inside
Wearing the face I own
The one I don't show
Because I'm scared sometimes of what it looks like
If I don't fit this space
I'll play my game
All I know that it is never enough
Because it's never enough
I'm ok that it is never enough
Because it's never enough
All I know that it is never enough
Because it's never enough
I'm ok that it is never enough
I know it's never enough
