lyrics

Johnny’s Song

Daylight crashes
Into his head
There’s days
He wishes
He was dead

The clouded thoughts
The faded dreams
Won’t allow
Him to escape his misery

It’s hell in here
It’s hell out there
Does anybody even care?
Does anybody even know?
How much
He hates to be alone

He wanders lost
Alone, but not
He can’t remember
What he forgot

The walk back home
Is short not sweet
The thoughts inside his head
Won’t give him peace

It’s hell in here
It’s hell out there
Does anybody even care?
Does anybody even know?
How much
He hates to be alone

He hates it
Hates it
Hates the way
He always
Wants to die, and hide, and cry

He hates it
Hates it
Hates the way
He always
Wants to die, and hide, and cry

It’s hell in here
It’s hell out there
Does anybody even care?
Does anybody even know?
How much he hates to be alone

He hates it
Hates it
Hates the way
He always
Wants to die, and hide, and cry

He hates it
Hates it
Hates the way
He always
Wants to die, and hide, and cry
