Twilight movie - By Myself lyrics

rate me

What do I do to ignore them behind me?<br>

Do I follow my instincts blindly?<br>

Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams?<br>

And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?<br>

Do I sit here and try to stand it?<br>

Or do I try to catch them red-handed?<br>

Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness,<br>

Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?<br>

Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin<br>

I make the right moves but I'm lost within<br>

I put on my daily facade but then<br>

I just end up getting hurt again<br>

By myself [myself]<br>

<br>

[x2]<br>

I ask why, but in my mind<br>

I find I can?t rely on myself<br>

<br>

[Chorus:]<br>

I can?t hold on<br>

To what I want when I?m stretched so thin<br>

It?s all too much to take in<br>

I can?t hold on<br>

To anything watching everything spin<br>

With thoughts of failure sinking in<br>

<br>

If I<br>

Turn my back I?m defenseless<br>

And to go blindly seems senseless<br>

If I hide my pride and let it all go on then they?ll<br>

Take from me ?till everything is gone<br>

If I let them go I?ll be outdone<br>

But if I try to catch them I?ll be outrun<br>

If I?m killed by the questions like a cancer<br>

Then I?ll be buried in the silence of the answer<br>

by myself [myself]<br>

<br>

[x2]<br>

I ask why, but in my mind<br>

I find I can?t rely on myself<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

How do you think I?ve lost so much<br>

I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch<br>

How do you expect... I will know what to do<br>

When all I know Is what you tell me to<br>

<br>

[x2]<br>

Don?t you know<br>

I can?t tell you how to make it go<br>

No matter what I do, how hard I try<br>

I can?t seem to convince myself why<br>

I?m stuck on the outside<br>

<br>

[Chorus x2]<br>

<br>
