Too Much Lyrics

Is it too much to ask for a semblance of anything real and intact?

An ounce of humanity?

I'm losing my grip on things

Or is it too much to ask?

Now there's a feeling of restlessness

That I can't shake from my chest

Counting my breath for a chance of relief

Born to be

A constant losing spree

The compassion fatigue that I see taking hold of me

Down and out

A rising sea of doubt all the chaos throughout

No life left to give like a drought

Now there's this feeling of senselessness

The constant screams and the cries of protest

There's gotta be something to end the stress

Now there's a feeling of helplessness

And I swear that I'm doing my best

With the weight of the world I won't pass this test

Slow down

Open your eyes and see

Nightmares become reality

Now there's this feeling of recklessness

Drive head first through the wall I confess

How the fuck does one person deal with the grief?

Now there's a feeling of preciousness

The sound of your laugh that I'll miss

Counting my breath for a chance of relief

[Off my chest]

Too much to ask; what's worth fighting for?

Is it worth the hurt? Is it worth it anymore?

Too much to ask - too much.
