[Verse 1]
If I showed my hand shaking like a leaf
You might not understand, but I bet you'd believe
This bat is inside, crawling around
The cobwebs in my mind that I try to drown out
You said I look like a ghost, man I almost was
You said I need to let go, quit chasing that buzz
That picture in time, frozen like ice
That girls keep repeating, beating me down to size

[Chorus]
Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark
I didn't get what I want, I got what I need
Man, it hurts like hell down here on my knees
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?

[Verse 2]
The night is my friend, I blend in with the best:
The vampires, the crooks, the felons and the rest
Now we can pretend that we really care less
And act like we love what we really detest

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Make this go away, I'm begging please [?]
There's little life left here for me to bleed
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
I'm looking up but I'm feeling down
Since I'm cutting these corners, was cutting me down to size
Am I losing control or losing my mind?
I know for a fact I'm losing my last place to hide
[Chorus]

[Outro]
My pulse is racing, I can't catch my breath
This near-life experience scared me to death
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
Or is this where we begin?
