lyrics

Standstill

Well it seems I'm caught in quite a mess here. I can't get out or get over my fear. Damn me for falling into this. Damn me, just leave me, maybe I deserve this. I deserve this.
Awake for nights on end, this head considering calling it quits again. But my heart makes sure this desires still burns, decisions firm. Just breath again. Don't fold your hands to such low demands. We still have a chance. Thats not how I was raised and I'm not half the shit you claim. So forsake me if you must cause I'm just not ready to give myself up. Whatever is left of this magical wonder I will guard until the end. Mistakes I've made I tried to mend, but they got me here in the end, so it was worth it. Whats the point in trying when your just half hearted. Well I'm not. So give up on me, giving up. The standstill at the midnight crossing is just temptation at its finest, guiding me to the rails I should've been hopping. But now I'm stuck here for another year, still just searching still not happy…
