Like the birds, fly freely
touch the sky, not the ceiling
no need to live in dreams just exist
no need to feel your head torn to bits
When it comes, fight back
feel alone, don’t act
breathe deep, take it in
nothing changes just the scenery
Like your head weighs down on your shoulders
let the walls close in you feel older
When it comes, fight back
feel alone, don’t act
breathe deep, take it in
nothing changes just the scenery
live suffering rhythm day to day
Breathe deep, take it in
nothing changes just the scenery

Travelled distances
dragging clouds behind me
wondered why my feet were buried six foot deep
I believed that sunrise means a fresh start for me
where’s the fresh start I need
striking matches now
burn it too the ground
because the sun won’t be here soon enough
I believed that sunrise means a fresh start for me
where’s the fresh start i need
took the long way round,
tripped at every problem found,
tried and tried but can’t get out,
at dawn there’s still no sunlight

I’ve been choking the lungs from my chest
some times i’d wish, that it would pull me under
next thing i know can’t breathe, breathe slow
the scratch in my throat passed me
but wouldn’t take home
a race but i go slow
can someone take me home
a race but i go slow
can someone take me home
a race but i go slow
i’ve been writing my story’s ending
i’ve been losing sleep can i go home
a race but i go slow
i tried can i go home
a race but i go slow
i can’t go
i’ve been choking the lungs from my chest
this time i wish, that i would make it home
a race but i go slow
can someone take me home
a race but i go slow

Float through the open window, wished i closed it
losing battles with siblings, run in circles home.
we’re jumping over the fence again
caved my head in
there was nothing to fall,
dug my head in the ground, did it help at all?
summer started so cold,
brought back aches in my bones, and the air took hold
only so many cracks a branch can take
from the weight of the world before it breaks
float through the open window, wish i’d closed it
pushing back through more than daisies, your life made me.
we’re jumping over the fence again,
caved my head in
there was nothing to fall,
dug my head in the ground, did it help at all?

brought back aches in my bones, and the air took hold

stood staring at the street lights, but i’m still not blind, guess i’ll see you in a while
stuck inside my head, made it feel like living was just like being dead.
let me walk away, it’s just another day i didn’t feel at home.
fantasies of being the sun, that lit up everything.
i took a step, checked behind me. no one was looking.
if i, i knew a way, to take back the pain, i know, id take the blame
heard you changed your hair, but you’ll still be the person that was never there. that’s so
but a broken voice is all i have to shout you, sounds like just noise.
