i open my eyes
i try to see but i'm blinded
by the white light
i can't remember how
i can't remember why
i'm lying here tonight
and i can't stand the pain
and i can't make it go away
no i can't stand the pain

how could this happen to me?
i've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
as i'm fading away
i'm sick of this life
i just wanna scream
how could this happen to me?

everybody's screaming
i try to make a sound
but no one hears me
i'm slipping off the edge
i'm hanging by a thread
i wanna start this over again
so i try to hold onto a time
when nothing mattered
and i can't explain what happened
and i can't erase the things that i've done
no i can't

how could this happen to me?
i've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
as i'm fading away
i'm sick of this life
i just wanna scream
how could this happen to me?

i've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
as i'm fading away
i'm sick of this life
i just wanna scream
how could this happen to me?!?!?!?!??!?!?!
