lyrics

VANDYKES COLLAR

Look down here please someone I'm dying
I can't see my pain anymore
I spent far far too long in crying
Could someone pick me up off the floor
I can't comprehend your frustrations
I'll try not look and not touch
Surrender to self realizations
But I don't think that means all too much

I give you time, now you are gone

I need some relief from this tension
That tears me apart at the seams
My shirt sleeves my only connection
My strength is far worse than it seams
Look down here please someone I'm dying
And appear that don't look all too bad
Please help me somebody I'm crying
Don't help me I'm better off dead

I give you time, now you are gone
I give you time, now you are gone
