Take my breath away, I don't need it anyway

cause I'm fine here in my old forgotten world

where I can be myself, left with the hand I'm dealt

and it's hard to get a grip when you're holding onto something you just let slip away

Here with my old friend, the silence in the end

And it rings so loud that I cannot pretend

I just close my eyes and ask a thousand whys

Will it change or stay the same? Will it ever go away?

The question still remains

On the road of desperation

Happiness machines, I'm coming clean
