Light a cigarette so I will smoke my soul
Hit my head a million times against the wall
Ain’t no solution to break free in this world
My desperation slowly grows
I rub my eyes red just to see you clear
Packing up my stuff doesn’t help my fears
So I’ll wash my face and leave my sanctuary
‘cause the street always gives me a reason to believe
thinking about you
aching for you
staring at the wall
talking ‘bout you
running to you
just to realize my soul
keep on moving on
trying to be strong
just to leave the fear alone
I can’t keep holding on.
I rub my eyes red just to see you clear

aching for you
staring at the wall
talking ‘bout you
running to you just to realize my soul
keep on moving on
trying to be strong
just to leave the fear alone
I can’t keep holding on.
