Lyrics...
I feel it slipping away
I feel it slipping away
I gave it all and no one cared
I feel it slipping away
I feel it slipping away
I caught it slipping away
I gave it all, but no one cared
I feel it slipping away
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping away
I feel it slipping away
I feel it slipping away
No more pain, No more fear
I feel it slipping away
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping away
I just can't learn to forget
Now i'm choking on the memories
Choking on regret
I tried, but I just can't find a way
To untangle all the pieces
After they've been thrown away
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping away
I will not suffer this loss
Of you again and again and again
I refuse to continue to live
In this perpetual nightmare
I decide it ends right here
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping
I feel it slipping away
I feel it slipping
Its slipping
Everything is slipping away
