It's waking up to the stupid nightmare of a life
It's going to sleep with tears in your eyes and not wanting to wake up
It's a thousand little things that amount to one big thing:
Wanting it all to stop.
The spinning
The thoughts
The voices inside and out
When music isn't even enough to hold the flood gates back
When you're on the ground
And you can't breathe
And you can't focus on one thing
That's when you need to focus on one thing
You search through your mind as hard as you can and you don't stop until it's the only thing you see
surrounding every inch of your brain
Make it the reason you slow your own heartbeat
make it the reason you stay alive
