(Hook)
I’m pretending every things all okay
I’m reaching out for help again today
I’m losing grip of my life, don’t fade away
I’m freaking out again, cause I know you won’t stay
(Verse 1)
The lights are flashing but I’m feeling black and white
Everybody’s dancing while I’m losing every fight
I can fake a smile, I can play the part
But every beat is trying to restart my heart
Your shadow follows every step I take
I’m running from the person that I helped create
The room keeps spinning faster than before
Still hoping you’ll come walking through that door
(Pre-Chorus)
Turn the speakers louder, let the silence drown
Maybe I won’t notice when I’m breaking down
Everybody’s moving like they’re feeling free
Why’s it always harder when it’s only me?
(Hook)
I’m pretending every things all okay
I’m reaching out for help again today
I’m losing grip of my life, don’t fade away
I’m freaking out again, cause I know you won’t stay
(Verse 2)
Mirrorball reflections hide the tears I wear
Searching every crowded room like you’ll appear
I keep chasing highs that never seem to last
While every good tomorrow turns into my past
The rhythm pulls me closer to the edge tonight
Trying to convince myself that I’ll be alright
But every heartbeat echoes through the bass
And every memory still wears your face
(Bridge)
Whoa-oh, don’t let me disappear
Whoa-oh, I need you somewhere near
The music keeps me breathing for another night
But when it fades I’m left alone beneath the lights
So if you’re listening, don’t let go of me
I’m tired of pretending I’m who they all see
(Final Hook)
I’m pretending every things all okay
I’m reaching out for help again today
I’m losing grip of my life, don’t fade away
I’m freaking out again, cause I know you won’t stay
(Outro)
The lights go out, the echoes stay
Another night just slips away
Still holding on to yesterday…
