Izobel Bransen - 96 lyrics

rate me

I hate that someone with a smile so bright

Fights so hard to fake it, so many times

Tries not to break it, or make it fade away

I hate that days are so much longer than nights

How I hide deprivation by lighting up my tired eyes

And watch up above as the sky tries to turn itself grey

I'm looking for answers that I'll never find

Life's a story that I'll never tell (Never tell)

I'm scared of the things inside my own mind

I'm losing what I knew so well

My sanity's on a thread that is so close to breaking

I live my life wondering if I'll see the new dawn arising

Watch my back, hide my tears

Face the facts, it's right here

The end

Don't you love how I sit here and count

Seconds, and hours, the time we can't live without

I'm wasting yours, I'm losing mine

And I try to be brave for today's sake

Since heaven can't help me,

And hell's only pushed me away

And I know I can't be the one to change fate's mind

I'll watch myself wither, chase after the future

A lullaby I'll never hear

Or end it tonight, giving up my last fight

But life's something I've learned to hold dear

My sanity's on a thread that is so close to breaking

I live my life wondering if I'll see the new dawn arising

Watch my back, hide my tears

Face the facts, it's right here

The end

The days race on by

And there's not enough nights

And there's so many things

I won't know

2, 304 hours await me

That's 200, 000 more minutes of breathing

And 8, 294, 000 goodbyes

I looked for the answers that I couldn't find

Life's a story I've already told
