lyrics
Where do I find the strength?
How do I free the weight,
that’s keeping me under?
Where do I get the nerve?
Take what I well deserve,
I search and I wonder?
Day into night, night into hell
I flee from my home, my man isn’t well,
He’s stricken with poison and self pity,
Where do I find the strength?,
How do I free the weight, that's keeping me under?
Where do I get the nerve?
Take what I well deserve,
I search and I wonder?
Time after time I know the routine,
Deep in my mind I’m able to leave,
If only I could realize that dream,
Where do I find the strength?
How do I free the weight, that’s keeping me under?
Where do I get the nerve?
Take what I well deserve,
I search and I wonder?
Afraid of unknowns, fear of a change,
Mental bars surround my home
where it’s steadfastly deranged
And these vicious circles keep my from myself
How do I free the weight,
that’s keeping me under?
Where do I get the nerve?
Take what I well deserve,
I search and I wonder?
Day into night, night into hell
I flee from my home, my man isn’t well,
He’s stricken with poison and self pity,
Where do I find the strength?,
How do I free the weight, that's keeping me under?
Where do I get the nerve?
Take what I well deserve,
I search and I wonder?
Time after time I know the routine,
Deep in my mind I’m able to leave,
If only I could realize that dream,
Where do I find the strength?
How do I free the weight, that’s keeping me under?
Where do I get the nerve?
Take what I well deserve,
I search and I wonder?
Afraid of unknowns, fear of a change,
Mental bars surround my home
where it’s steadfastly deranged
And these vicious circles keep my from myself
