Rubble & Dust
I need to hide away
From all this rubble and dust
Just go and find a day
When there's someone I can trust
How many times I have fallen
And chosen to get back up
Woken up in cold sweat,
To find myself in tears
I pull myself together,
And choose to just act tough
'Cause life's a game of chance
And when you don't make it through
It's like your in a trance
And when you finally come aroung
It's like they don't even know you
Everything is crashing down,
Stuck underneath all this rubble and dust
See the lights outside,
You come crawling out
In the middle of the night,
I wake up in cold sweat,
And find myself in tears
How many times I have fallen
And chosen to get back up
I wake up in the night,
To find myself in tears
So this time around
Ican't bring myself together
And choose to just act tough
The truth is that
I'm not who I am
I want even more
But I know I can't
Please, open the door
I need your help
I don't know where I stand
Or if I can, still even stand
Everything is crashing down
I'm trapped underneath
All the rubble and dust
I need someone
That I can trust
I am in trouble
And I think I know why
If I'm right
I might just cry
I'm trapped underneath
All the rubble and dust
I'm buried now,
And I'm buried deep
The surface's too high
And I can't breathe
THe truth is that
I'm not who I am
I want more and more
But I know I can't
How many times I have fallen
And chosen to get back up
Waking up in cold sweat,
To find myself in tears
I pull myself together
And choose to just act tough
'Cause life's a game of chance
And when you don't win
It's like your in a trance,
And when you come around
It's like they don't even know you
Everything is crashing down
I'm trapped underneath
All the rubble and dust
See the lights outside,
You come crawling out
In the middle of the night
I wake up in cold sweat,
To find myself in tears
How many times have I fallen
And chosen to get back up
I wake up in the night,
I wake up in cold sweat,
To find myself in tears
So this time around
I can't bring myself
To pull back together
And just act tough
The truth is that
I'm not who I am
I want more and more
But I know I can't
So please, open the door
I need you help
I don't know whee I stand
Or if I can, even still stand
Everything is crashing down
I'm trapped underneath
All the rubble and dust
I need someone, that I can trust
While I am trapped,
Underneath all of the,
Rubble and dust

Sometimes I feel like I dont have anything to live for. So I wrote this one night about a month ago and it just helped me realize that there is still so much good in this world. You just have to take the good with the bad. :)
