Verse
It’s taken hold of me, every nerve, every breath
No strength left in this world, I’m a stranger to myself
I’m running in circles, my head’s on fire
I’ve gone completely wild, lost in the wire
Fought a battle I was born to lose
My worst enemy wears my shoes
Reaching for the sun, but I’m falling back
Staring straight into the crack
Pre-Chorus
Look into the eye
Look into the chaos
I’m screaming inside
But nobody knows
Chorus
Give me a break from myself
From everything I am, everything I’ve done
Give me a break from myself
I’m burning out, I’m coming undone
Give me a break from myself
From my own ego, my own fear
Give me a break from myself
I can’t stand it here
Verse
My feet gave up, I’m frozen in place
Choking on doubt, sand in my face
Wrong city lights, wrong state of mind
Wrong song playing on repeat tonight
Let me disappear just for a while
Another drink, another fake smile
Maybe the night won’t let me go
Maybe I’ll finally let it all go
Pre-Chorus 2
I’m hanging on air
There’s nothing to grab
No answers anywhere
Just echoes I have
Chorus
Give me a break from myself
From everything I have, everything I lack
Give me a break from myself
I’m tired of fighting my past
Give me a break from myself
From my own shadow, my own fear
Give me a break from myself
I can’t stand it here
[Bridge Drop it down, then build hard]
Fear wrapped its hands around my heart
Now it dances in the dark
Nothing solid, nothing true
No way forward, nothing new
I’m losing ground, I’m losing time
I don’t know yours, I don’t know mine
If I don’t escape this cage tonight
I’ll fade into the noise and light
[Final Chorus (big, explosive]
Give me a break from myself
From everything I want, everything I hate
Give me a break from myself
Before it’s too late
Give me a break from myself
From my own voice in my head
Give me a break from myself
Before I break instead
Outro
Give me a break…
Give me a break from myself
