Chorus:
I can't, I can't I can't, I can't take it This is the time to smile, I can't fake it
Please allow me the chance now To break it down
Post Chorus:
It's not snow, It's rain coming down And the lights are cool But they burn out
And I can't pull off the cheer Not this year Not this year Not this year
Verse 2: Aj is only palm mute here, Aly will enter
When I look into the mirror No happiness is present here
Not supposed to whine, Not supposed to cry Try to hold it in, but not this time

No more whispering Are you listening I am pleading I am pleading
