By Myself Marilyn Manson Remix lyrics

What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening? Do I
Sit here and try to stand it, or do I
Try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness,
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?

Because I can`t hold on when I`m stretched so thin,
I make the right moves but I`m lost within.
I put on my daily facade, but then
I just end up getting hurt again.

By myself (myself)
I ask, why (myself)
I can`t rely on myself (myself)
I ask, why
But in my mind I find
I can`t rely on myself

I can`t hold on
(To what I want when I`m stretched so thin)
It`s all too much to take in
I can`t hold on
(To anything watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in.

If I turn my back, I`m defenseless,
And they go blindly succsensless,
If I hide my pride and let it all go on,
Then they`ll take from me `till everything is gone, if I
Let them go, I`ll be outrun, but if I
Try to catch them, I`ll be outdone.
If I`m killed by the questions like a cancer,
Then I`ll be buried in the silence of the answer

By myself (myself)
I ask, why (myself)
I can`t rely on myself (myself)
I ask, why
But in my mind I find
I can`t rely on myself
In my mind I find

I can`t hold on
(to what I want when I`m stretched so thin)
It`s all too much to take in
I can`t hold on
(to anything watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in.

How do you think,
I`ve lost so much?
I`m so afraid (I`m so afraid)
I`m so afraid (I`m so afraid)
I`m out of touch (just nice to know...)
How you suspect (how you suspect)
I will know what to do,
When all I know
Is what you tell me to?

Don`t you (know)
I can`t tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I can`t seem to convince myself (why)
I`m stuck on the inside.

Don`t you (know)
I can`t tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I can`t seem to convince myself (why)
I`m stuck on the other side

I can`t hold on
(To what I want when I`m stretched so thin)
It`s all too much to take in
I can`t hold on
(To anything watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in.

I can`t hold on
(to what I want when I`m stretched so thin)
It`s all too much to take in
I can`t hold on
(to anything watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking...
