My life leaks away groan by groan My years are fading in sighs I am growing weary I am growing weary They wanna blot me from their memory Forget me like a corpse in a grave Throw me out with the scraps Behind doors, they plot to ruin me And I'll be honest with you It's caving in on me I've been breaking through walls to get free Neck deep in this sinking sand I will no longer run But my trust will remain, it's everlasting Your hands hold my days But my trust will remain, it's everlasting Your hands hold my days Embarrass the wicked Stand them up Leave them shaking their heads As they drift down to Hell, drift down to Hell Down to Hell Drift to Hell Gag the loud-mouthed liars Who heckle me? Your follower Slam the door on those oily, mocking faces Silence the venom of gossip I cannot go it alone The world is caving in on me I cannot go it alone The world is caving in on me I cannot go it alone The world is caving in on me The world is caving in on me
