Can’t Face It

I reach out for you when I'm on my way
To fade into the night sky where there's nothing else
It's pitch black and I am a dead giveaway
But it's you I can't face and I have made it this way
Every night before I try and sleep
I think about how it could be if I could switch it off and dream

I reach out for a way but it is you I can't face
In comes the next day and I don't stand a chance
All the lessons I've lived by will vanish
I reach out for a way but it's you I can't face
I reach out for a way but it's you I can't face

I think about you when my mind is whacked
As it begins to attack before a plan could hatch
Out of my chair and into a screaming pit
Where only rage exists and I thought you'd be waiting in it

I reach out for a way but it's you I can't face

In comes the next day and I don't stand a chance
All the lessons I've lived by will vanish
