Blackwater Reds - Mesmerize Lyrics

Weights and pressures beating down on me
Familiar feelings needed other times
I see them all distracted by the common word
Bathing in the blissful ways they always knew
Despite all these things that make me turn away
The truth remains, I need existence everyday
This constant fear I let reside in me
Makes for life so cold and filled with loneliness
I need, just a little break
Is that too much to ask
Throw away, keep me in
Leave you gone, I'll be here
I feel I've lost myself, I've got to run away
I need to separate, My mind has gone astray
Feeling lost, blind response
Unaware, feeling bare
Leave me be
Alone, I'll strive
There's no trust (Leave me be)
I cannot build
Left in desperation (Alone, I'll strive)
I open too wide
This vicious cycle
Goes round and round
I'm left alone
Drowned in despair
Protection lost from those you love
A shattered trust from those you love
A checkered past from those you love
So cold with no soul
Leave me be
Alone, I'll strive
So I'm left alone (Leave me be)
Trying to rebuild
With the next right choice (Alone, I'll strive)
Taken step by step
Throw away, keep me in
Leave you gone, I'll be here
Left alone, to rebuild (Throw away, keep me in)
Step by step, Rise up (Leave you gone, I'll be here)
