[Intro]
mm-mm (oh-oh)
I’m still here
just not fully here
don’t talk to me (shh)
I’m not really here right now
[Verse 1]
everything too loud again (too loud)
even silence feels like noise (noise)
I don’t wanna explain myself (no no)
I don’t have the words or voice
heart heavy in my chest (in my chest)
like I’m sinking through the floor
I just stare at nothing
until I’m not in it anymore
[Verse 2]
headphones on, world fades (fade away)
everything feels too close again
messages I don’t reply to (leave it)
stacking up like weight on skin
breathing shallow, mind loud (too loud)
trying not to fall apart now
I’m not okay but I’m not gone (not gone)
just stuck somewhere in between it all
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need fixing (no)
I just need space to breathe
just space to breathe
[Chorus]
I can’t face life right now (oh-oh)
so I disappear in my mind
(I can’t face it)
let the noise all pass me by
don’t ask me to explain it
I don’t have the words tonight
I’m just trying to survive it
one quiet moment at a time
I just go quiet (quiet)
when my head starts spinning too fast
(I go quiet)
trying not to break at last
[Post-Chorus]
(mm-mm) leave me in the silence
(oh-oh) I don’t feel alright
(mm-mm) don’t pull me back yet
(yeah-yeah) I’m just out of sight
[Verse 3]
everything’s too sharp lately (sharp)
even thoughts feel too loud
so I pull away from everything
just to calm myself down
I just want to disappear
I just need to step away
before my mind turns everything
into something I can’t explain
and maybe that’s okay
to not be okay out loud
just sitting in the moment
until it softens somehow
[Pre-Chorus]
not running away (no no)
just trying to steady myself
[Chorus]
I can’t face life right now (oh-oh)
so I drift out of my mind
(I can’t face it)
let the pressure fall behind
don’t need answers, don’t need words
I just need it all to slow
I’m still here but out of reach
somewhere nobody can go
oh-oh
it’s not forever, I know that
(I know that)
yeah-yeah
but it still feels like it is
I just go quiet… (quiet)
when I can’t handle what it is
[Post-Chorus 2]
(quiet, quiet) I go silent in the noise
(quiet, quiet) till I find my voice
(mm-mm) I’m still breathing under it
(oh-oh) I don’t disappear
[Outro]
mm-mm (mm-mm)
I don’t leave
I just fade for a bit
mm-mm (mm-mm)
not gone
just overwhelmed in it
breathing in… breathing out…
wait for the sound to drop
mm-mm
I’ll come back
when my mind stops
