Tapes

I try
To keep myself in line
But I'm never alright
When I take a step outside

I try
To feel like I'm alive
But I'm never alright
When I lose myself inside

I run away
To believe that I won't have to try
And face everything in my life tonight

What's your plan
When you see your new life walk by
Would you give your all or be left behind

Well these days
I feel a bit of desperation
My minds flooded with fascination

Spending most of my time alone
But I can't do this on my own

I may never sleep that's fine
I don't have a lot of time

I can't slow down
Look what's around
Take my hand
You're with me now

Reminiscing on the times
That you once had
Pulling memories made on tapes
Out of your bag

But we were never meant to look back
We were never meant to look back

Call me before you go to sleep tonight
Tell me everything that's on your mind

We talk so fast
The hours pass
Then we can see the sunrise

We may never sleep that's fine
We don't have a lot of time

We can't slow down
Look what's around
Take my hand
I'm with you now
