[Intro]
Another morning
Same cracked mirror
Same tired eyes
Same old fear here
[Verse 1]
Bills on the table
Dreams on the floor
Scrolling through faces
Still feel ignored
Laugh off the pressure
Choke down the doubt
Smile for a second
Break when it’s out
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
Is it always like this?
Running on fumes and cheap bliss
I’m screaming in a crowded place
But no one even turns their face
[Chorus]
This is my kick drum heartache
Every beat just fights the pain
Life hits heavy
I still stay
Stomp the ground so it won’t break
This is my kick drum heartache
I’m still here through all this weight
If I fall
I’ll rise again
Hit that drop and drown the rain
[Verse 2]
Friends getting married
New cars
New names
I’m stuck in circles
Same job
Same shame
Mom says she’s worried
Dad just stays quiet
I turn the volume
Try to defy it
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
Is it always like this?
Running on fumes and cheap bliss
I’m screaming in a crowded place
But no one even turns their face
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Hands up high for the broken
For the ones who barely cope
Turn the hurt into motion
Every hit a little hope
[whispered vocals] I’m not okay
But I won’t fade
[build
Riser] If all I’ve got
Is this sound wave
[Chorus]
