while everyone s sleeping in their bed i m wide awake lost in my head i m so fucking tired and out of breath and it s been like this ever since you left i was always more careless than careful losing grips on things i cared for my body s tired and these eyes are sore forever drifting while you re safe ashore while everyone s smug with second best i ll bandage these wounds inside my chest been carrying the weight of the world and just can t do it anymore it s impossible to be invincible in a world that s so deceitful but i just keep pretending that never sinking is believable well i ve been down and i ve been out but this is something i ve never felt the letters and the promises you ve sent have only brought me hell i m breaking up the cycle of letting you pull me down can you feel the ground shake it caves from your weight empty promises can t save you now the clarity of your voice has since turned to white noise and static it seems my outline and your scant design weren t meant for this schematic i ve become numb to what s come undone your secondhand stories like sun before morning lost the shine that lit up your eyes your brightest words are your boldest lies you ve left me short on breath i m speechless clinging to the only air i still have left avoiding death i can feel the room getting smaller and closing in well i ve been down and i ve been out but this is something i ve never felt the letters and the promises you ve sent have only brought me hell i m breaking up the cycle of letting you pull me down can you feel the ground shake it caves from your weight empty promises can t save you now the clarity of your voice has since turned to white noise and static it seems my outline and your scant design weren t meant for this schematic what hurts the most isn t the fact that our lives changed it s how i ve become so obsolete but i ll thrive from what remains i ve always been an open book letting you skim through every chapter now the pages are finally closed a catalyst for your disaster well now you re down the one that s out and this is something you ve never felt with these words i ve helped myself grow inside and out of doubt and i know this brings you hell i finally broke the cycle of letting you pull me down can you feel the ground shake it caves from your weight empty promises can t save you now the clarity of your voice has since turned to white noise and static it seems my outline and your scant design weren t meant for this schematic was i the needle in your arm the reason for your bad habit or were those empty words of a withdrawing addict when the drugs are gone i hope one thing remains i pray my voice still echoes through your veins
