I'm breaking down
Feels like I'm crumbling
Can you hear me now?
Screaming from my prison cell

The walls come in close
Like a building falling in
I try to same my soul
But it just gets crushed within

The cave in
Rocks are falling down on me
I'm sinking
Stuck aboard this failing ship and I
Try to run,
Try to stay up,
Try to swim
but I just keep falling down
I just keep going down

Every day
Just the same as the day before
Monotony
Repeating things 'til I feel dead

I come home, no tears
They've been cried before, I'm all dry
Flop down in a chair
Try not to think but my mind goes to

The cave in
Rocks are falling down on me
I'm sinking
Stuck aboard this failing ship and I
Try to run,
Try to stay up,
Try to swim
but I just keep falling down
I just keep going down

This is it, I've hit the floor
I can't take this
No I can't take this
My heart is crumbling
My soul is torn in two
I've hit the bottom of this hole
How can I get away from here?
Oh how can I get away from here

I wake up
Bring myself out of my comfy bed
And I, leave my dreams
They're only going on in my hear
And I live my life
At least I try to
Make the best of everything
And I just smile and remember
To sing about

The cave in
Rocks are falling down on me
I'm sinking
Stuck aboard this failing ship and I
Try to run,
Try to stay up,
Try to swim
I've stopped going down
No longer going down
