20 minutes to showtime
A face in perfect pain
His nerves are shot and his eyes closed tight
He leaves his problems for rainy days
No one should have to fight this hard
With struggles in the form of friends
To pick a poison is easier said
When a person will not pretend

He says
Why won't they listen?
They're gunna' fall off the earth
And no one will notice but me
One more decision
Before they fall off the earth
And no one will notice but me

He only speaks when he means it
With passion bigger than his words
He knows his road is less traveled
And many have fallen before
No one should have to have dreams like this
That darken on rainy days
To pick a poison is easier said
When a person won't walk away
