**intro**
Can you listen to me baby
All the things that made me the man I am
Aren't enough to cover my fears
All my worries drowning in my tears
Have taken control
**Chorus**
As I watched you go (oh no)
With the lessons I've known
My star that bound you (oh, oh)
Left on its own
Up on the second tier (oh)
Right under the stratosphere (oh)
Does anyone know I'm here (oh)
**Hook**(x2)
So you go (oh no)
Taking the lessons you know (you know)
Hope it was enough to save you
As you're out there on your own (oh oh)
Left up here, my visions cleared
Blurry eyes now void of fear
Only one way down from here (oh no)
**Verse**
On the free fall, oh what a time to start regretting it all
If only I made the time to listen to myself
Time that I tried putting you together
I should've honestly spent on me
Built you up using pieces of myself
Now I'm a storybook tragedy, a pioneer of mental health
An example of how you shouldn't treat yourself (oh oh)
It don't help that the break wasn't clean
I hit the floor and didn't expect the scene
I thought the drop was high enough to break me
Didn't account for the pain honestly
On the cold pavement, surrounded by pieces of me,
Pieces I need,
realizing I never took time
To care about me
**Verse 2**
Fragments of memories, scattered and worn
Pieces of promises, tattered and torn
I built you a shelter from my own bones
Left myself weathered, broken, alone
Standing at heights I was never meant to climb
Giving away parts that were never mine to provide
The altitude's thinning, I'm gasping for air
Looking down at the distance, too frozen to care (oh no)
**Chorus**
**Hook**
**Freestyle Verse:**
And I KNOW what I need—how many times must I fall?
Staring at mirror shards reflecting it all
I SCREAM at myself but the words just dissolve
This pattern's a prison with walls I installed
I'm the ARCHITECT of my own damn demise
Drawing blueprints for healing I never USE
What kind of FOOL holds the key to their chains
But keeps them locked tight just to wallow in pain?
I've written this story a THOUSAND times before
Same broken protagonist, same shattered core
The IRONY stings as I'm standing here aware
Knowing the solution but too SCARED to repair
PATHETIC—that's what this cycle has become
Seeing the exit sign but choosing to run
Back to familiar darkness, that I've outgrown
This self-sabotage is the only home I've known
**Hook**
**Outro/Chorus**[repeat, fade to end]
I watched you go (oh no)
With the lessons I've known
My star that bound you (oh, oh)
Left on its own
Up on the second tier (oh)
Right under the stratosphere (oh)
Does anyone know I'm here (oh)
So you go (oh no)
Taking the lessons you know (you know)
Hope it was enough to save you
As you're out there on your own (oh oh)
Left up here, my visions cleared
Blurry eyes now void of fear
Only one way down from here (oh no)
