(Lyrics)
I'll tell you flat out, it hurts so much to think of this
So from my thoughts I will exclude this very thing
That I hate more than everything is The way I'm powerless
To dictate my own moods
I've thrown away so many things that could've been much more
And I just pray my problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works, no that's not the way it works
When I go down, I go down hard
And I take everything I've learned, and teach myself some disregard
When I go down, It hurts to hit the bottom
And of the things that got me there, I think, if only I had fought them
If and when I can clear myself of this clouded mind
I'll watch myself settle down Into a place
Where peace can search me out and find that I'm so ready to be found
I've thrown away the hope I had in friendships
I've thrown away so many things that could have been much more
I've thrown away the secret to find an end to this
And I just pray ,y problems go away if they're ignored
But that's not the way it works, no that's not the way it works
Any control I thought I had just slips right through my hands
While my ever-present conscience shakes its head and reprimands me, reprimands me Then
