Slip Away

Locked inside my mind, passing time

With nothing to lose

Trying to find a reason to fight

With nothing to prove

I've been waiting for the light to glow

Waiting for the love to show

Waiting for you

I'm just laying in the fading light

Waiting for the chance to strike

Waiting for you

But it’s never right

It’s never good enough for you

Can’t speak my mind

‘Cause you don’t wanna hear the truth

You only tell me,

What you want me to say

You’ve made your point

But I can do this myself

How could you do this to me?

It’s getting harder to breathe

Can’t hold me down, can’t drown me out

'Cause I’ll slip away slowly the closer you hold me

Temporary moments of light

Distorting the view

Visionaries chasing new heights

For something to do

When everything's been done before

You’re still knocking at my door,

Begging for more

When you're spilling me another line

Thinking I'll just take them blind

Is that all I’m for?

But it’s never right

It’s never good enough for you

Can’t speak my mind

‘Cause you don’t wanna hear the truth

You only tell me,

What you want me to say

You’ve made your point

But I can do this myself

How could you do this to me?

It’s getting harder to breathe

Can’t hold me down, can’t drown me out

‘Cause I’ll slip away slowly the closer you hold me

How could you do this to me?

It’s getting harder to breathe

Can’t hold me down, can’t drown me out

‘Cause I’ll slip away slowly the closer you hold me
