The last time was the last time,
I hate trying to make these stupid words rhyme,
All the pain and anger held in my chest,
Bursts free from my iron fist,
Gripping my throat as I struggle for air,
Wishing with all my heart that I was there,
I'm drowning in a sea,
Letting my emotions get the best of me.

I don't know where I went wrong,
Or how far I have gone.
I feel lost here on my own,
Amazed at how far apart we've grown.
I don't understand and I can't see,
How I wish things could be.
Looking at a world through tear stained glass,
Wondering how long I'll last.

Every new day is a fight with myself,
A never ending-struggle with the demons in my head,
If my strength ever fails I'll find myself dead.
'Cause in the end something's always got to give,
The only thing holding me up is the sheer will to live.

I still can't see where I went wrong,
Or exactly how long I've been gone,
But I'm ok here on my own,
Wondering how far apart we've grown.
I understand now I can see,
This is how things are supposed to be.
No longer looking at the world through tear stained glass.

No longer looking at the world... through tear stained glass.
