Lyrics:
And I think that is the part of hell that a person in depression really tastes
The hopelessness
The terrible hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness

Let’s take another one, swear I’m having fun, but I look miserable
‘Cause time don’t heal no pain, I still feel just the same
I guess time is standing still

Draw a smile on every day I’ve run out of paint
Hold my brush, I’m feeling faint

Feel Iike I can really be myself around you
Mood swings like a pendulum, I can’t break loose
Feel like I can really be myself around you

Someday I might find peace I long left behind I hope you’re still here when I do
I know it ain't fair to you, the shit that I put you through
My condition is no excuse
Know it won't make much sense, but baby in my defense, you’re the only one I feel safe around
Let me explain myself, it’s the first time I’ve felt like not running us into the ground

Feel Iike I can really be myself around you
Mood swings like a pendulum, I can’t break loose
Feel like I can really be myself around you

I’ve always sacrificed anything that’s brought me happiness, for emptiness
But in exchange for my pain I maintain, inspiration
'Cause heartache is my medication

Feel Iike I can really be myself around you
Mood swings like a pendulum, I can’t break loose
Feel like I can really be myself around you

I feel like I can really be myself around you
