The Bearing Lyrics

The Bearing - Free

I don't know what to say
Never been treated this way
Found a hole, I guess I'll crawl inside
You carry on with your life as if it never happened
While I turn out every light
but lay awake, lay awake
With my mind constantly racing
Totally naked, but I feel enclosed
I can't escape this prison
That my own mind is placed in
So lay awake, and hope it never shows
I stumble forward on my path
Can never give more than just half of myself
To anyone that asks
And so I live in this lie as though I'm always happy
While a darkness sucks me dry
And fire awaits, fire awaits
To burn all that remains of me
I cannot make it to a place called home
Totally fake this image that I put out to protect me
So fire awaits to burn me to the bone
There are no words to say
What's done is done
I'll just move on
It didn't feel right
It seemed to me
That those who hit-and-run
Had somehow won
If I had gave up my fight
Dangerous to watch your life pass by
Before your eyes
Without you really in it
Comes a time to try to decide why
I choose the side
That knows no lower limit
There've been people
That tried to help me to stand tall
But I listen with my ears closed
And my back against the wall
Now what I'm left with
Is the only thing standing in my way is me
So I guess what that means
Is that only I can set myself free
Now I know just what to say
Never thought of it this way
Found a hole, guess I'll crawl outside
And carry on with my life
And take on all that's happened
While I bathe in warm sunlight
And fly away, fly away
Banish all the fear and loathing
Totally naked, but I feel reborn
I reawaken this vision
Where my mind is finally coping
To fly away from all that's broken and torn
Fly away
Fly away
Fly away
