Strain by The Kennedy Soundtrack Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're an emotion, you stand inside me
But you're still there
When we split, you left me empty
And you didn't care
Cold heart, it was my fault from the start
We could've talked
I get the feeling
It was always your intention to walk away
Day by day
It's messing with my head
And your friends always seem
Like they got something to say about me
Like I said before, they don't know me
Smoking weed to stop my head
From going crazy
Need the chronic buzz
Not realising how low my head already was
Lost my faith in life, told me you'd be my wife
You lied to me
Was a suprise to me
That you could give up so easily
And now I've slipped and I can't get up
Life's fucked up, run outta luck drastically
But now I know when it's my time
I ain't going out easily
And that's the truth, see
[Chorus]
I'm sick and ruined to hell
My heart aches for you
It's just as well
Something's gotta come and help me
Through my pain
Because I can't take, can't take the strain
[Verse 2]
How can I live when I'm already dead inside?
When I see you, I want to run and hide
I can't cope, I think I need a rope
But that's the easy way out
I'm so confused
Tell me, what's it all about?
I wanna scream and shout
Can't you see I'm in misery?
I need some help and that's no joke
My head feels broke in pieces
And this is killing me
Set me free from this pain
All this mad shit is infectin' my brain
Please, God, help me
Tell me what to do
I'm slowly dyin' inside and all I have is you
My friends say that's not true
Don't know what to think, too much stress
Now I need to drink
But there's no point in drowning my sorrow
I'll smoke a joint and play 'em with ya tomorrow
In the meantime I reminisce
Over love we used to have
Sweet memory bliss
[Chorus]
I'm sick and ruined to hell
My heart aches for you
It's just as well
Something's gotta come and help me
Through my pain
Because I can't take, can't take the strain
[Verse 3]
Please get out of my head
I can't cope
My life's turned into a daily soap
Eight months of it, just me and you
Not only my girlfriend, but my best friend
We always had shit to do
Now it's gone, all I'm left with is this song
And a head that constantly feels wrong
Don't belong
My friends say, "Be strong."
My head says, "Can't go on."
Don't know what to do
And all this fuss is because of you
You're one girl, but you had to
Step into my world to mess me up
Can't ya tell?
'Cause you knew my head
Is my own private hell
That's where I dwell
Fell and I'm still fallin'
Hear my friends callin'
But a part of me won't grab they hand
Once they hit the ground, make no sound
And rest in peace
(6x)
I can't understand it
I'm missing you now
You're an emotion, you stand inside me
But you're still there
When we split, you left me empty
And you didn't care
Cold heart, it was my fault from the start
We could've talked
I get the feeling
It was always your intention to walk away
Day by day
It's messing with my head
And your friends always seem
Like they got something to say about me
Like I said before, they don't know me
Smoking weed to stop my head
From going crazy

Not realising how low my head already was
Lost my faith in life, told me you'd be my wife
You lied to me

And now I've slipped and I can't get up
Life's fucked up, run outta luck drastically
But now I know when it's my time
