Torn Apart

I can't slow down, no time to rest My loved ones need me at my best But every time I try to slow the pace The world keeps turning it into a race I'm trying to keep up, but I'm falling behind I need to catch my breath, but I can't find the time Chasing myself each passing day Trying to keep the pace, but losing my way It feels like everyone is running against me I don't know what to do, I just want to break Free from the feeling that I'm being chased Free from the feeling of getting erased Tell me I'm alright, tell me I'm okay That's all I want you to say My mind's a maze, can't find my way All I hear is what they have to say The time slips by, and the moment's missed There's so much negativity that I can't resist Because in my own head, darkness prevails Whatever I try, everything fails Tear down the wall, break me down to my core Come get me, break down the door! Tell me I'm alright, tell me I'm okay That's all I want you to say I'm torn apart I'll stick around, won't let you down I can't please them all My heart is heavy, drowning in stress I'm lost in this world, chasing success I need to find a way to make this right But I'm stuck in this fight or flight I'll never give up, I'll keep fighting on To find that balance before love is gone I decide I'm scared to lose them all, but I can't run and hide I understand My time is running out, I need to take a stand Every day I struggle, so unaware I'll be there to show I care I try to juggle, but I always fall In this endless cycle, I'll stand tall, blah! I'm torn apart I'll stick around, won't let you down I can't please them all My heart is heavy, drowning in stress I'm lost in this world, chasing - I'm torn apart I'll stick around, I won't let you down I can't please them all My heart is heavy, drowning in stress I'm lost in this world, chasing success
