Lyrics
Day 03 of 30
I cant' see it anymore
I can't see it anymore
Visions follow me to where
It blinds me more
I can't hear it anymore
I can't hear it anymore
Not listening to what I hear
I'm deaf once more
So will you cut me off
At the end of the night
When I've had enough
Of feeling alright
When I can't see
Will you walk me home?
So I won't have to be alone
I can't taste it anymore
I can't taste it anymore
I've would swallow all my pride
To eat once more
I can't smell it anymore
I can't smell it anymore
I bottled up a scent inside
And closed the door
So will you cut me off
At the end of the night
When I've had enough
Of feeling alright
When I can't see
Will you walk me home?
So I won't have to be alone
I can't touch it anymore
I can't touch it anymore
Feeling that I can't hold on
To what I did before
So will you cut me off
At the end of the night
When I've had enough
Of feeling alright
When I can't see
Will you walk me home?
So I won't have to be alone
I can't do it anymore
