[Intro]
Tell me how you keep going
Tell me how you keep breathing
[Verse 1]
Another pill, another prayer to nothing
Staring at the ceiling while my chest is crushing
Voices in my head say "quit, you're bluffing"
Mirror screaming back: "man, do something"
Heartbeat's fast but my hope's on E
Text unread, friends ghost on me
Told mom I'd be fine, but she knows I lie
How long can you run with a noose that tight?
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m scared of the dark in my mind
Pressure that’s breaking my spine
How can I say that I'm fine
When I'm dying inside?
[Chorus]
How are you supposed to keep going?
When the weight’s too much, and you’re broken
How do you fake it, keep hoping
When you're one breath away from choking?
How are you supposed to keep going?
When the world says you gotta be golden
But your heart’s so tired, it's closing
Tell me how you keep going
[Verse 2]
Eyes burn red from the tears I hide
Another “I’m okay” when I'm dead inside
Sick of the game, sick of the smile
Everyone wants me strong, but I'm fragile
Scroll through the pics of the life I fake
Filter on dreams that I know might break
Pressure to be perfect got me feeling worthless
How do I keep moving when it feels so worthless?
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m scared of the dark in my mind
Pressure that’s breaking my spine
How can I say that I'm fine
When I'm dying inside?
[Chorus]
How are you supposed to keep going?
When the weight’s too much, and you’re broken
How do you fake it, keep hoping
When you're one breath away from choking?
How are you supposed to keep going?
When the world says you gotta be golden
But your heart’s so tired, it's closing
Tell me how you keep going
[Bridge]
Scream in the night, nobody hears me
Cry in the shower so they don’t see
Carve out the pain in another song
Tell me it helps me carry on
Please, tell me it helps me carry on
[Chorus]
How are you supposed to keep going?
When the weight’s too much, and you’re broken
How do you fake it, keep hoping
When you're one breath away from choking?
How are you supposed to keep going?
When the world says you gotta be golden
But your heart’s so tired, it's closing
Tell me how you keep going
