lyrics

I can’t settle down,
Gotta give my pulse a break-
It’s been racing.
The days have been so cloudy,
Wish it’d hurry up and rain- Tired of waiting.
Work a few days, I’m feeling so wasted,
A fog engulfs me, I'm feeling complacent,
I’m endlessly pacing.

So why can’t I let go
Of what pulls me close to drowning?
What brings me to the edge
Makes me too afraid to look down
Not strong enough to hit the ground running.

Got me up this morning,
Don’t know what came over me- but I can’t breathe.
Scared to try my best,
I'll just question myself-
There must be more than this.

So why can’t I let go
Of what pulls me close to drowning?
What brings me to the edge
Makes me too afraid to look down (half time)
Not strong enough to hit the ground running.

Why am I paralyzed
By the future I belong in?
What makes me reach out
Shows me that I won’t be good enough...
You can look away but you can’t outrun some things.
