visit from the past

escape from my
reality
so I can be
in control of me
or at least see
the things holding me
my blurry eyes
cannot hide
the things inside
the bitter taste
from the tears
rollin' down my face
remind me of a place
from a time ago
I see me there
so much worry
too many cares
things never change
so why even try
to run from the pain
its here to stay
I'll always be the same
I'm done playin' this game
so what do I do
now that I'm through
so tired of the fight
I just wanna give in
lay down my burdens
I simply cannot win
where do we go
when we're tired of the show
when will I learn
to just tell my heart no
