I try to keep it together but its slipping through

Transitioning to a darker blue

Its taking anything that I've ever had

I've lost lovers, friends, just to tell you I'm sad

Dead life

I can't cope with this

Lost life, lost sight, lost everything

Greyblood runs through my veins

Flowing and can't be contained

Self-destructive

I'm self-destructing

I can't help I'm pushing you away

I keep walking

I'm always walking

I'll never stop until I'm in my grave

I am on my own

I've been locked outside

Nowhere to go

As night turns to dawn

Do I still need the sun?

Cause I've been lying in my coffin

For two years still thinking often

This isn't where I'm meant to be

I don't deserve to finally sleep

I've been lying in my coffin

For two years still thinking often

This isn't where I'm meant to be

I don't deserve to finally sleep

Dead life

I can't cope with shit

Lost life, lost sight, lost everything

Greyblood runs through my veins

Flowing and can't be contained

Set myself up

Fall for the trap

Making mistakes

Ignoring the map

My compass is spinning

Times only thinning

I'm in hell still

Burning at both ends

I'm at war with the world and the way it should be

Look outside, I look outside

I don't want a part of it, don't want a part of it

I'm at war with the world and the way it should be

Look outside, I look outside

I don't want a part of it, don't want a part of it

I am on my own

I've been locked outside

Nowhere to go

As night turns to dawn

Do I still need the sun?

I've been lying in my coffin

For two years still thinking often

This isn't where I'm meant to be

I don't deserve to finally sleep

I've been lying in my coffin

For two years still thinking often

This isn't where I'm meant to be

I don't deserve to finally sleep

I'm at war with myself and the man I should be

I look in the mirror, he never looks back at me

I'm at war with myself and the man I should be

I look in the mirror, he never looks back at me

I've been lying in my coffin

For two years still thinking often

This isn't where I'm meant to be

I don't deserve to finally sleep

I've been lying in my coffin

For two years, I'm still thinking often

This isn't where I'm meant to be

I don't deserve to finally sleep
