It's getting past the point of irony
watching my life fall slowly into a dream
one you wake from cold and alone
sweat drips from my head down to my bones
Sunk eyes surrounded by a pale red hue
don't know where i am or how i should feel
It's getting hard to find
somewhere where i want to be
for more than a night of restless sleep
hellbent on being able to say that i'm okay
(i'm not okay)
I'm running out of lies
to tell you when i'm feeling blue
i just don't want to worry you
worry you
This house resembles the rest of my life
a goddamn mess that no one wants to be inside
"It's alright, you'll be just fine"
fuck you i just hate that line
Sunk eyes surrounded by a pale red hue
don't know where i am or how i should feel
but i've found a way to help me get through
Become a disconnect from everything
from everyone i've learnt to see
there's beauty in just getting by
i don't want to live my life
as a disconnect from everything
of everyone i've learnt to see
there's beauty in just getting by
i'm so sick of being tired all the time
And it feels so naive to say
"i'm not as sad as i used to be"
But it's still hard to find
somewhere where i want to be
for more than a night of restless sleep
