(Verse 1)
I woke up in this bed, same storm again
Same familiar burns, same 4 a.m.
Streetlights cutting through the open blinds
Changing the room into prison stripes
I count the lines like rosary beads
Praying one of them will set me free
I send a text, a desperate call to a dead name
Hoping for a reply, but it never came
The silence echoing through these hollow walls
She's gone, you're gone, then panic calls
(Chorus)
You say this loneliness is just a phase?
Broken flashlight, can't see through the haze
Every breath feels like negative space
Burning down this house, knowing nobody stays
Yeah, yeah, inside my head, where the loneliness plays
(Verse 2)
I drive the same dark streets around this town Tracing gunmetal, with an unsettling doubt
Avoiding the places that will trigger a letdown
Your ghost riding shotgun calling me out
Telling my friends that I’m doing just fine
They smile, but don't believe in the lies
Another welfare check, will it buy me time?
TIK TOK...... TIK TOK....... THE CLOCK HAND DIES
(Chorus)
You say this loneliness is just a phase?
Broken flashlight, I can't see through the haze
Every breath feels like negative space
Burning down this house, knowing nobody stays
Yeah, yeah, inside my head, where the loneliness plays
(Bridge)
This is gonna kill me, head not level
Six feet down ain’t deep enough
I’ll keep swinging this busted shovel
Till my hands give up, I'M SURE I'LL GIVE UP
If I stop now it means you win
But, the dark keeps flooding in
Pretend like you care, your PRETTY blank stare
BURY ME ALIVE..... USE THE DIRT, YOU ASKED ME TO SHARE
(Outro)
Soon, your voice won't haunt me anymore
I’ll lay alone, in my bed that you made
Whisper “goodnight”, listening to the silence fade
I'm finally losing the fight
Till then I'll scream into the pillow
Till then I'll fake that I’m fine
Till then ill stay one more, one more time
I'll try to stay one last time...
