The Radio

Let me go to that place that noone knows
I don't belong in this world
I hate this life, my only friend is the radio
All my tragedies are caught up in a whirl
And all I want is to go away
To live a life without being afraid
So let me go to that place where noone goes
That place I dream of on the radio

And I'm the one who suffered through
All those years locked in my room
So 'fraid to leave, to step outside
I block the sun so I can hide
I turn the radio up loud to block out all surrounding sound
To drown the noise, and drench the pain
My memories they shall remain

Let me out! I'm imprisoned in this cage
My body's weak, and it's rotten and decayed
I'm dieing here on my ugly lazy bed
Why can't this noise just leave my head?
And all I want is to go away
To live a life without being afraid
So let me out, I close my eye's so I can go
That far away place on the radio

And I'm the one who suffered through
All those years locked in my room
So 'fraid to leave, to step outside
I block the sun so I can hide
I turn the radio up loud
To block out all surrounding sound
To drown the noise, and drench the pain
My memories they shall remain

This is my heartache, noone cares for me
They all wish that I would die
This is my tragedy, noone loves me
I just wish that I could die
