Lyrics

I can only be myself
I'm the only one I see
I can be no one else
Gotta play make believe
I know you think I'm weak and small
But I can only do my best
If I can't walk, I'll crawl
Any way to get to it

Fold my life in silk and sackcloth
I’ll pave this trail of tears

Gonna to turn this thing around
Gonna flip it right side up
Tired of livin upside down
Tired of always giving up
All I need is twenty-five
Tell me are you in or out
I’m gonna tell you all my lies
Then I’m gonna scream and shout

Driving down this empty highway
I Sleep with one eye closed
To watch my life disappear

I’m moving on to something new
Burnin out the same old bit
The trail is getting all used up
Ain’t nothin really left of it
You know I gotta light the fire
You know I gotta feel the sting
I gotta play make believe
I gotta kill all my pain












Fold my life in silk and sackcloth
I cry this trail of tears
To watch my life fall apart



It’s been a lot of fun you know
I’ve had a lot of crazy nights
Don’t think I’m going to make it home
I really don’t feel quite right
You know it’s just a lot to take
I think I took everything
Now I’m going to disappear
Now I’m gonna fade away


Driving down this empty highway
I lived with one eye closed
To watch my life disappear

Fold my life in silk and sack cloth
Now I sleep with both eyes closed
You see my life disappeared


Disappear
