Chester]  

 Myself! 

 Myself! 

  

 [Mike] 

 What do I do to ignore them behind me? 

 Do I follow my instincts blindly? 

 Do I hide my pride, from these bad dreams 

 And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening? 

 Do I sit here and try to stand it? 

 Or do I try to catch them red-handed? 

 Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness, 

 Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness? 

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

 I make the right moves but I'm lost within 

 I put on my daily facade but then 

 I just end up getting hurt again 

  

 By myself (Myself) 

 I ask why 

 But in my mind I find I can't rely on myself (Myself)I ask why 

 But in my mind I find I cant rely on myself 

  

 [Chester]  

 I can't look around Its too much to take in 

 I can't hold on, When I'm stretched so thin 

 I can't slow down, Watching everything spin 

 I can't look past, Its starting over again 

  

 [Mike] 

 If I turn my back I'm defenseless 

 And to go blindly seems senseless 

 If I hide my pride and let it all go on then they'll 

 Take from me till everything is gone 

 If I let them go I'll be outdone 

 But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun 

 If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer 

 Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer 

  

 By Myself (Myself) 

 I ask why 

 But in my mind I find I can't rely on myself (Myself) 

 I ask why 

 But in my mind I find I cant rely on myself 

  

 [Chester] 

 I can't look around, Its too much to take in 

 I can't hold on, When I'm stretched so thin 

 I can't slow down, Watching everything spin 

 I can't look past, Its starting over again 

  

 Don't You (repeated over and over again) 

 KNOW! 

 I cant tell you how to make it  

 Go! 

 NO matter what I do, how hard I 

 TRY! 

 I cant seem to convince myself  

 WHY! 

 I'm stuck on the outside
