these days of sleeping
and the nights awake
find myself suffering
in all this painthe world is asleep
but my heart is breaking
am i okay?
yeah, just jokingi wish things would fall into place
because lately i can't find my place
in this world, this whole fucking race
right now i can't find anything to chaseso i guess i'll just exist
making a list
of the things i want to fail at next
waiting for those midnights textsthese days of sleeping
the lonely nights awake
this ache inside my heartbreak
i'm frightened... this life will be a mistake
