lyrics

Stressed right out of my fucking head if I could just have a little more time
Days go by like flashing lights since I left who I was behind
Never in a million God forsaken years could I accept to believe it was real
Just get me right off of this fucking ride I'm afraid about the way that I feel

"What you saw was a glimpse of heaven that could never in this life be real..."
once again...in the devils playground...

You can never know what it's like and you can never point, judge or assume
Each and everyone's got a hell to burn and this one's mine with impending doom
Yes dreams are there to be shattered and our hope lies on a crumbling wall
But I'd rather much feel like shit everyday than motherfucking feel nothing at all

"Not everybody was meant to feel what others seem to be happy with..."
once again...in the devils playground...

And then an angel came and picked me up and told me it would be safe to love again,
then walked away...and broke my heart

Nooooo....

So you think the pain lessens with age...it don't
So cry...get to know your inner self
Don't lie...most especially to yourself

Try to find what's hidden inside that's all that I'm trying to do
And staring thru your lifeless eyes just sometimes pulls me thru

It just fucking sometimes pulls me thru...
It takes away the pain...keeps me sane...
once again...in the devils playground...
It just fucking helps me thru...
