Lyrics
"What do I Say?"
Too many years, too many dreams.
It's not exactly how it's supposed to be.
Another day, another time.
Look for a place to leave this all behind.
And every time, making believe.
Deep down I know to change is up to me.
And you can see, that I can't hide.
I'm trying to forget the other times.
Another thing stalks around me now.
What do I say?
A couple big toughs surround me now.
I can't get away.
Can't get outside, can't get away.
Can't help myself, I have to face the day.
Too many things, too many lies.
Look for a place to leave this all behind.
Another thing stalks around me now.
What do I say?
A couple big toughs surround me now.
I can't get away.
What do I say?
Now you can see that I can't hide.
I'm waiting to forget the other times.
Up to this day, tried to deceive.
Been living in this land of make believe.
Too many things, enter my head.
I'm trying not to think of what was said.
Some people stare, then look away.
I know I have to face another day.
Alternate lyrics:
Another thing stalks around me now.
I'm lost and afraid.
A couple big toughs surround me now.
I can't get away.
