I open my eyes
I try to see but i'm blinded by the white light.
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
I'm lying here tonight
And i can't stand the pain
And i can't make it go away
No i can't stand the pain

Chorus
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
Got nowhere to run
The night goes on as i'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just want to scream
How could this happen to me

Everybody's screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I want to start this over again
So i try to hold
On to a time when
Nothing mattered
And i can't explain
What happened and i can't erase the things that i've done
No i can't

Chorus
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
Got nowhere to run
The night goes on as i'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just want to scream
How could this happen to me
