My Dark Places - Stiff Little Fingers

Well it cuts just like as knife

Takes away your love of life

Puts out your fire and leaves you in the ashes

And you lay there in the hole

What you loved now leaves you cold

It’s hard to get the strength to face the morning

Some days you really feel like hiding

Some days you swear you’ll never go out anymore

And I’m not going back

I’m not going back to my dark places

I’m not going back

I’m not going back to my dark places

Well the days drag slowly by

All you want to do is cry

Nothing makes sense nothing has a reason

And the world is not the same

And you’re the one to blame

Before too long you feel just like a prisoner

Some days you really feel like screaming

Some days you swear you’ll never smile anymore

It’s something they can’t see yet it seems so real to me

Can’t explain just how I feel when what I feel is no emotion

It’s not a tragedy, yet that’s how it seems to me

I wish that you could see or even for one minute be me

Well, I got there in the end

With the help of many friends

Some who helped by simply just believing

And the days look brighter now

Yet I know someday, somehow

I could end up back there in an instant

Some days I really feel like laughing

Some days I realize I must stay on my guard
