I'm too shooked-up to think straight now
I'm wide awake but I want to sleep
Just like I did before
I'm stuck in a moment
Caged by the contradictions
Caught by endless fear
This overwhelming ignorence scares me
My faith is drifting away
Every single second I can feel it flowing
Going everywhere except coming back to me
I'm drowning in my own tears
Trying to keep my head above
The salt water pulls me down
And I can't fight it much longer
Tears from my eyes, like acid
They burn, they hurt
How much longer can I resist surrenderance
How much longer can I live in this hell
But I won't give up though
Even though that would be the easiest thing to do
I'll keep fighting until the battle ends
And I hope that will be soon
Because I can't take this much longer
My heart is bleeding, screaming for help
But my voice can't say the little word
Fortunately you understand the heart's message
And I know you will help me get through this
I'm glad you noticed because I need you
Need you to protect me, keep me safe
Keep me from doing stupid things
We really are the Islands In The Stream
