Rat Patrol - Collapse Lyrics

I walk the streets alone, mind distorted in multiple bends
Cross the street without looking, I stop the cars with just a glance
I really don't care anymore, the power is now on me, I don't care anymore, because you're no longer with me

Everybody praised me, because I seemed to be so strong
And I arranged everything without any help all along
And now I'm standing barefoot on the soil with you underneath;
Strength is just the outside, inside I am shattered to pieces

Must not break down, or my world will collapse completely
Can't afford to let go, so I try to regulate it weekly
Drowning in sorrow, I have to keep it all together, and just collapse a little, until it all gets better

People say that I'll manage in this future without any sight
Everything has changed, and I am not alright

I realize things will never be like they used to be, and until the day I die the memory will stay with me
In this new life on my way to so-called new existence
I will always be with you, and will always feel some resistance

And I wish it was over
I will have to take control
Collapse a little every week, save myself from a free fall
