Duration: P00H02M52S

lyrics

How will they get life out of me?
When do we get away?
A lifetime can be so confusing
I don't wish to be so optomisitic all the time
Or every time something goes wrong
Sometimes I'd rather sleep than take charge

Help me
Help me question who I am and what I stand for
Help me question my life
And why I can't go on like this anymore

My love of others causes my lack of a spotight to seem
Like a lack of self esteem
With certain people I'm shy
But with you I just want to stare into those eyes
