I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded
By the white light
I can't remember how?
I can't remember why?
I'm lying here tonight
And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No, I can't stand the pain
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes
Got nowhere to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?
Everybody's screaming
I try to make a sound
But no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again
So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can't explain what happened
And I can't erase the things that I've done, no I can't
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes
Got nowhere to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes
I've got nowhere to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?
Leximay you are almost completely right. His song is about a drunk driving car crash and if you can relate to that part than that's really sad. But this song also could have another meaning to other people. If something bad has happened like a death in the family or they're just plain depressed they could feel like, "how could this happen to me?" Then in that case sorry but leximay you're wrong because almost everyone has those moments. And btw it's ok to say u can relate to a song.... Just not repetitively. :)
