I don't want to write any more lines
I don't want to sing any more phrases
I don't want to hold another instrument
I just want to let go
I want to fade
I want to disappear
To hold my breath
To stop
I am numb
Pumping music
In my veins
I don't want to write
Any more songs
I want to be free
I need to stop distracting myself
From what's really wrong with me
I can't be fixed by writing songs
Forget about it
Do it anyway
Make some more music
Create something
You know you want to
You want to be heard
You want everyone to know
What it is that you went through
The band fell apart
The girl left
I left
I sought love
In the wrong places
I created
To forget
Pain
I can't fix myself by running
I can't face the tide like this
I just want the music
To stop
