[Verse 1]
I had the best of the worst sides
And lungs full of second tries
Too many flash-fires burning through my chest
Yeah, I’m alive, but barely at best
Spent all my youth on LED dreams
Built my soul inside a screen
Now I’m twenty-something, chasing sleep
In a loop I can’t delete
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
You say, “You ain’t you when you’re like this,”
This ain’t you, and you know it
But ain’t that just the point?
I don’t know how to let go — no
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m a mess inside,
But I could always be
Whatever you wanted, just not what you need
And maybe I need it — yeah, I need it
Lying’s the only rush I feel, believe it
Life sucks and I’m losing my mind
Can you tell me the time?
I’m just waiting to die —
Yeah, I’m just waiting to die
⸻
[Verse 2]
I draw my tears in material things
Spent my faith on dopamine
All my songs start to sound the same
Every word a different cage
Manic, damn it — here we go again
Every thought becomes a friend
Whispering “You’ll never change,”
And maybe they’re right this time
⸻
[Bridge] (Soft glitch echo, ambient synth build)
I’m so tired of being tired of me
Of drowning in simplicity
They say ignorance is bliss —
Then why’s the silence killing me?
⸻
[Final Chorus]
I’m a fucking mess sometimes
But still, I could always be
Whatever you wanted, but not what you need
Especially when you stop believing me
Life sucks and I’m losing my mind
Can you tell me the time?
I’m just waiting to die
Yeah, I’m just waiting to die
⸻
[Outro] (Soft hum, static fade)
(whispered)
I’m a mess in my head…
but it’s all I’ve got left.
