I see that I’m the only one here

I lost the one who’s near to me my mind is dead

I can’t believe the fear inside my head

Who am I supposed to be? Myself or me?

And how can I pretend to be that

    Bm                                      F#7
I lost the one who’s near to me. My mind is dead

I can’t believe the fear inside my head
