Don't expect alot from me and it's sad to see that,
I don't know exactly what you want me to be.
Spending my time overthinking every little thing.
And don't ask why, 'cause life's too short but I'll be alright...
I'm gonna wake up,
I'm gonna wake up with my fears.
I dream to find, a little peace of mind.
Can't shut this off!
(Can't shut this off!)
Save me from myself.
I just wanna feel, I just wanna feel.
Down the line, I carry on talking to myself.
Then realise, I've got to break this vicious cycle.
I never know, I never know.
I never know, I never know.
Just say I'm fine, please say I'm fine...

Can't sit straight, nothing's clear.
I can't believe the pressure built between my ears.
An acquired taste for something more.
I haven't quite found what I've been looking for.
And I'm scared of letting go,
Adrift from all I know.
Can't stand to say goodbye,
No not for a little while.
Wake up feeling my best though it won't last.
I'm just trying to, I'm just trying to,
Take control of my days as they slip past.
I'm just trying to, find the long way home.
I hate the lies brought to me through all the whispers.
I can't believe what's happened through the years.
Run so fast to make it to the line. I've gotta make it this time.
Fading back into the dark,
Amongst broken memories.
Can't stand to say goodbye,
no not for a little while...

Some say it's my opinion,
So say what you've been thinking.
Confused by what surrounds me,
Don't know exactly what I need.
Can't take back what I've done.
We just need space to breathe.
Don't hold me down.
Don't hold me down.
Swim back to me cause I'm caught between.
Accept you'll take it out on me,
I know that you're forgiving.
And if you don't return then
Maybe that's what I deserve.
I'm not apologising,
For mistakes I have not made.
Some say it's your opinion,
So I'll say what I've been thinking...

I fall asleep just to dream and overcomplicate the simple things it seems,
As I try to progress in this hardened mess that I'm in.
Looking up at the stratosphere, I'm hoping one day I can get out of here and move to the sea,
Where the air is clear and it feels so easy to breathe.
I'm starting to forget the things that I held close to me.
I don't want to but that seems to be what's happening.
I don't want to lose sight, I don't want to lose.
I don't want to lose sight cause I'm done yeah,
and I've gone away.
I'm still searching for a place to call home.
Sick of the bad luck, everything's going wrong.
I make excuses, now I get nervous,
Never been like that.
I'm terrified of staying here, frustrated,
but I'll watch the tide for calmer seas.
Looking up at the stratosphere, I can't believe that I have got out of there and moved to the sea.
Now the air is clear and it feels so easy to breathe...
