I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light
I can't remember how,
I can't remember why,
I'm lying here tonight,
And I can't stand the pain,
And I can't make it go away,
No I can't stand the pain
*CHORUS*
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes,
Got nowhere to run,
The night goes on, as I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just want to scream,
"How could this happen to me?"
Everybody's screaming,
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I want to start this over again
So I try to hold,
On to a time when,
Nothing mattered
And I can't explain,
What happened and I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't
*CHORUS*
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes,
Got nowhere to run,
The night goes onAs I'm fading away,
I'm sick of this life
I just want to scream,
"How could this happen to me?"
