Can you hear all of my open wounds
I'm whispering as loud as the flower bloom
I've been somewhere in the sky, don't worry
I'll be right on time if I can't help it
I'm so sorry
I've been trying not to cry in the grocery store
Little bully inside pinning me to the floor
It must be easier than it seems
But I can't get these thorns out of my teeth
It's killing me, but I want more
Cover my ears
I think I'm shutting down, going standby
Sleep mode, offline
Feel nothing
It's quiet as hell in my room
I've been fighting for my sanctuary
How do I stay alive if I don't wanna be
I've been trying not to cry at the grocery store
Little bully inside pinning me to the floor
It must be easier than it seems
But I can't get these thorns out of my teeth
It's killing me, but I want more
