Staring at the walls to pass the time
Pinch myself make sure I'm still alive
I'm not alright It's become a disguise
Friends and family, I'm losing all ties
Staring at the walls to pass the time
Pinch myself, make sure I'm still alive
I've been here beforeI will survive another month under gray skiesI'm holding on as a tight as I can
The monotony never seems to end
Every day feels the same
Every day I think about the place I'd rather be than here
I've been here before
I will survive another month under these grey skies
I've been here before
I will survive another month under these grey skiesWe've carried each other through and over the seas
We've carried each other through and over the seasWe live for nights like this
The ones we won't forget
Forever remember
We live for nights like this
The ones we won't forget
Forever rememberI hope to open my eyes to see this picture
I'm throwing it all away
I hope to open my eyes to see this moment
That I should treasure foreverStaring at the walls to pass the time
Pinch myself make sure I'm still alive
I'm not alright
It's become a disguise
Friends and family, I'm losing all ties
I'm holding on as tight as I canComing home, I don't know when
I'm holding on as tight as I can, I swearMy dearest love, I woke up tired today, even more so than yesterday
How that's possible, I don't even know, nor do I want to
It's hard to find the motivation when you are this drained
My body aches but I'm used to feeling this way
Seventeen down, seventeen to go
That's not so bad, right?
I think of home often and of you even more
Yesterday I saw the sun shining
It appeared for a few minutes just after two
For a moment I found myself smiling
As if those short rays of light were enough to get me by
Maybe that was enough
Thank God, I needed that
I surely needed thatFor a moment I found myself smiling
