I'm haunted by faces of the past
Keep prayin' this hell don't last
But I'm smothered by what I can't say
By nightmares that won't ever go away
Round and round, it's the only life I know
The ride keeps spinnin' with no place to go
Will today be the day I lose myself
The day I jump off life's carousel
I keep grinnin' and pretendin' I'm alright
But those memories keep spinnin' in my mind
Just need one damn day outta this hell
Will today be that day
Or will I lose myself
Same old thoughts just a different night
Swear I done been here a thousand times
Each turn feels just like the one before
Like I ain't even goin' nowhere anymore
Been tryna change but it pulls me back
Like I'll never really get my life on track
Will today be the day I lose myself
The day I jump off life's carousel
I keep grinnin' and pretendin' I'm alright
But those memories keep spinnin' in my mind
Just need one damn day outta this hell
Will today be that day
Or will I lose myself
Round and round, my damage drags me along
But I keep prayin' that maybe tomorrow I'll be strong
Will I be strong
Will today be that day
Or will I lose myself
