lyrics

I lost my sense of time and space,
I don't know where I belong
Please don't ask me what year it is
Cause I will probably get it wrong

Everything I do is a selfportrait
And it's all in and out of my hands
While I'm still a child in many ways
Life's pouring through my fingers like sand

But I'm not as aimless as I seem
I'm just in temporary torment
My memory keeps playing tricks on me
Days are gone, and I don't know where they went
I can't recall how they were spent

All I'm left with is my honesty
And even that abandons me at times
When it's almost too painful just to be
It's often easier to lie

But I'm not as helpless as I feel
And I will regain control
I know the odds are against me
But I'm determined to reach my goal
I will not break, I will stay whole
I will not break, I will stay whole
I will not break, I will stay whole.
