Stop The Clock

By island warrior

I need some help
I'm here everyday
Unable to resist
The temptation to stay

I feel so much pain
Life's not the same
Forever wishing
For a positive change

Let me turn back the clock
Then put on a lock
So time never reaches
The point life is lost

Haunted by blame
Partnered with shame
Cutting in on the moment
Then dancing away

To lose myself
How hard could that be
I'll be anybody else
Just don't make me be me
