Super Xero (By Myself demo)
[Intro:]
So, what do you think ?
[1st Verse:]
What do I do to ignore what's behind me ?
Do I follow my fate to escape blindly ?
Do i hide my pride away
from these bad dreams
and give in to sad thoughts
that are maddening ?
Do I let go and try to stand it
or do I try to catch them red-handed ?
Do I trust some and
get fooled by phoniness
or do I trust no one and
live life in loneliness ?
Cause sunlight burns the skin of sleeping men.
I make the right turns but I'm lost within.
I put on my daily façade, but then,
I just end up getting hurt again by myself.
[Pre-Chorus:]
(MYSELF !)
I ask why
(but in my mind I find)
I can't rely on myself.
(MYSELF !)
I ask why
(but in my mind I find)
I can't rely on myself.
[Chorus:]
I can't hold on ;
(to what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It's all too much to take in.
I can't hold on
(Playing against you, I can't win.)
with thoughts of failure sinking in.
[2nd Verse:]
If I turn my back, I'm defenseless.
And to give into fate seems senseless.
If I hide my pride, I'll lie sleepless
and won't be able to cope with my weakness.
If I let them go, I'll be outdone.
But if I try to catch them, I'll be outrun.
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer,
then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer
by myself.
[Pre-Chorus:]
(MYSELF !)
I ask why
(but in my mind I find)
I can't rely on myself.
(MYSELF !)
I ask why
(but in my mind I find)
I can't rely on myself.
[Chorus:]
I can't hold on ;
(to what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It's all too much to take in.
I can't hold on
(Playing against you, I can't win.)
with thoughts of failure sinking in.
[Bridge:]
How do you think I've lost so much ?
Always afraid that I'm out of touch.
How do you expect I will know what to do
when all I know is what you tell me to ?
Don't you (KNOW)
I can't tell you how to make it (GO).
No matter what I do, how hard I (TRY),
I can't seem to convince myself (WHY)
I'm stuck on the outside.
Don't you (KNOW)
I can't tell you how to make it (GO).
No matter what I do, how hard I (TRY),
I can't seem to convince myself (WHY)
I'm stuck on the outside.
[Chorus:]
I can't hold on ;
(to what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It's all too much to take in.
I can't hold on
(Playing against you, I can't win.)
with thoughts of failure sinking in.
[Outro:]
I can't hold on ;
(to what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It's all too much to take in.
I can't hold on
(Playing against me, I can't win.)
with thoughts of failure from with...
