Whispering voices in my head

Sounds like they're calling my name

A heavy hand is shaking my bed

I'm waking up and I feel the strain

Why should I go where everyone goes?

Why should I do what everyone does?

I don't like it when you get too close

I don't want to be under your thumb

Solitude is a faithful friend

Turn the lights off I'm not home

Can't you see, I don't need your help?

You're going fast when I want to go slow

You make me run when I want to walk

You're sending me down a rocky road

I get confused when you start to talk

You're dragging me right to the edge (oh-oh-oh)

I've got to go when you jerk my rope (oh-oh-oh)

I don't know where the good times went

Again

It's getting more than I can take

It's like a band tightening around my head

If you keep pushing, something's going to break

It's making me think, I'd be better off dead

Solitude is a faithful friend (oh-oh-oh)

I'll sort my life out on my own (oh-oh-oh)

I just want this pressure to end

Again

'Cause I'm sick (I'm sick)

Again
