(Verse 1)
I wake up already worn down
Like the night refuses to let me go
Got my head filled with regret
Same old ghosts, same old road
So I fake a smile in the mirror
Like the reflection might believe the lie
But the weight don’t get lighter
When you’re just learning how to hide
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve been carrying this silence
Like a cross I never chose
Every step feels like I’m sinking
In the echo of what I know
(Chorus)
I’m tired of feeling this way
Tired of feeling like I’m losing every fight
I know I got demons,
keeping my skeletons good company,
They’re with me every night
I’m screaming for a break
From this war inside of my mind
Trying not to let the light shine,
On the broken pieces that make up me
(Verse 2)
I’ve tried praying to the ceiling
Tried drinking it all away
Every time I promise to do better
Seems i end up broken by the end of the day
I’m so damn sick of surviving
When living feels out of reach
I’m standing in the wreckage
Of the man I said I’d be
(Pre-Chorus)
I keep chasing some kind of sunrise
But I’m stuck in the same dark room
Every hope feels like a warning
Every breath comes too soon
(Chorus)
I’m tired of feeling this way
Tired of feeling like I’m losing every fight
I know I got demons,
keeping my skeletons good company,
They’re with me every night
I’m screaming for a break
From this war inside of my mind
Trying not to let the light shine,
On the broken pieces that make up me
(Bridge)
If this pain’s a lesson
I’ve learned it a thousand times
If there’s a light at the end of this
It’s too damn far to find
I don’t need saving
I just need some sleep
From the voices in my head
That won’t let go of me
(Last Chorus / Outro)
I’m tired of feeling this way
Tired of feeling like I’m losing every fight
I know I got demons,
keeping my skeletons good company,
They’re with me every night
I’m screaming for a break
From this war inside of my mind
Trying not to let the light shine,
On the broken pieces that make up me
Can this really be my fate.
I know this pain will one day cease.
So I’ll carry this weight
Till I finally find some peace.
