I Can’t Say” Lyrics Preview

Looking out the window seeing through the pain
Watching my parade again being washed out by the rain
A menagerie of life, memories I should have known
One last reach into the light
One last time to catch my soul

Reckless innuendo so I’m feeling fine
Living in the nightlife with my cigarettes and wine
I can see each day blurs into the void
Smiling, frowns, laughing voices — they break all my toys


I can’t say there’s no tomorrows
I can’t say there’s truth in lies
I can’t say there’s regret or sorrow
I can’t say there’s no goodbyes


If I could sleep a little longer
Would I then know it’s all a dream?
When I sit alone in silence
I hear the echoes deafening scream
