0:00When the day begins all the guilt sinks in
0:03And I look on the wreckage of the night
0:05Though I try to break free the cycle breaks me
0:08Am I ever gonna see the light
0:11All the friends I've lost and the pain I've caused
0:14Have never been enough just to make me stop
0:17The lines I draw to look at myself
0:19Are turning into somebody else
0:22I know how this will end
0:25But I'm starting up again
0:27Turned around inside out
0:30'Cause this way
0:33Takes me nowhere
0:34(I can't can't see a way out)
0:36Takes me nowhere
0:37(I can't can't see a way out)
0:39Takes me nowhere
0:40(I can't can't see a way out)
0:41Beats me up
0:44When I go there
0:45(I know I could start again)
0:47When I go there
0:48(Oh no here we go again)
0:50Takes me nowhere
0:51(Oh no here we go again)
0:53Beats me up
0:58Open on this scene a familiar dream
1:01Of you telling me what I already know
1:04Though the truth seems near you can't get there from here
1:07But you sure know where you gotta go
1:10As the rumor wind blows my infamy grows
1:12Seeing friends above and I hit another low
1:15The picture I paint to look at myself
1:18Is turning into somebody else
1:21I know how this will end
1:23But I'm starting up again
1:26Turned around inside out
1:29'Cause this way
1:32Takes me nowhere
1:33(I can't can't see a way out)
1:35Takes me nowhere
1:36(I can't can't see a way out)
1:37Takes me nowhere
1:38(I can't can't see a way out)
1:40Beats me up
1:43When I go there
1:44(I know I could start again)
1:46When I go there
1:47(Oh no here we go again)
1:48Takes me nowhere
1:49(Oh no here we go again)
1:51Beats me up
2:19But today if I change
2:22And stop digging my own grave
2:25I will try to set things right
2:27'Cause this way
2:30Takes me nowhere
2:31(I can't can't see a way out)
2:33Takes me nowhere
2:34(I can't can't see a way out)
2:36Takes me nowhere
2:37(I can't can't see a way out)
2:39Beats me up
2:42When I go there
2:42(I know I could start again)
2:44When I go there
2:45(Oh no here we go again)
2:47Takes me nowhere
2:48(Oh no here we go again)
2:50Beats me up
When the day begins all the guilt sinks in And I look on the wreckage of the night Though I try to break free the cycle breaks me Am I ever gonna see the light All the friends I've lost and the pain I've caused Have never been enough just to make me stop The lines I draw to look at myself Are turning into somebody else I know how this will end But I'm starting up again Turned around inside out 'Cause this way Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Beats me up When I go there (I know I could start again) When I go there (Oh no here we go again) Takes me nowhere (Oh no here we go again) Beats me up Open on this scene a familiar dream Of you telling me what I already know Though the truth seems near you can't get there from here But you sure know where you gotta go As the rumor wind blows my infamy grows Seeing friends above and I hit another low The picture I paint to look at myself Is turning into somebody else I know how this will end But I'm starting up again Turned around inside out 'Cause this way Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Beats me up When I go there (I know I could start again) When I go there (Oh no here we go again) Takes me nowhere (Oh no here we go again) Beats me up But today if I change And stop digging my own grave I will try to set things right 'Cause this way Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't can't see a way out) Beats me up When I go there (I know I could start again) When I go there (Oh no here we go again) Takes me nowhere (Oh no here we go again) Beats me up
