Verse 1
Woke up again, that’s sucks ass guess I lost that fight
Didn’t ask to be born, but I’m still alive cracks in the floor look like open doors
But they never lead me anywhere anymore
Coffee goes cold in a shaking hand
Mirror says “try,” but I don’t understand
How you survive when you’re barely there
Just a ghost that’s forced to wear a face and care
Pre-Chorus
They say it passes, they say “hold on”
But I’ve been holding for way too long
If this is living, what is the cost?
Breathing in air that feels like loss
Chorus
I can’t leave, but I can’t stay
Trapped in a life I can’t escape
Every step feels like sinking sand
I’m disappearing where I stand
I’m not alive, but I’m not gone
Stuck in the space between the two
If there’s a way out, I’ve looked too long
And found no proof, no proof
Verse 2
People talk, but it’s just noise
Empty comfort, rehearsed words
“Give it time,” like time’s a cure
But time just makes the pain feel worse
I laugh on cue, I play the part
Hide the fracture in my heart
Every “I’m fine” just builds the weight
Of a life I want to take
Pre-Chorus
They say it passes, they say “be strong”
But strength feels like dragging death along
If hope is real, then where’s mine?
Why’s it missing every time?
Chorus
I can’t leave, but I can’t stay
Trapped in a life I can’t escape
Every step feels like sinking sand
I’m disappearing where I stand
I’m not alive, but I’m not gone
Stuck in the space between the two
If there’s a way out, I’ve looked too long
And found no proof, no proof
Bridge
Maybe I’m just too tired to fight
Maybe I’m just scared of the night
Maybe there’s something I can’t see yet
Buried underneath all this regret
‘Cause somewhere deep beneath the ache
There’s a pulse I could break
And I hate it—but it’s still there
A quiet proof I haven’t disappeared
Final Chorus (soft → build)
I can’t leave… but I’m still here
Even if I don’t know why I breathe
Every tear, every silent scream
Still means there’s something left of me
I’m not okay, but I’m not gone
Maybe that’s where I begin
If there’s no way out, I’ll hold on
To the smallest thread within
