[Verse 1]
Alarm goes off
I stay face-down
Same old ceiling
Same old sound
Shirt on the floor
Heart on the chair
I pull it together
Pretend I don’t care
[Chorus]
I hate my life
I hate this skin
Wish I could burn it and start again
So many hands that pulled me apart
Now I’m cracked
But I’m still holding my heart
I hate my life
I hate this day
Wish I could wash all the hurt away
So many scars that nobody sees
Yeah I’m cracked
But the crack’s how I breathe
[Verse 2]
Mirror is cruel
Eyes look through me
Smile like elastic
Snaps quietly
Messages read
Then left on red
I say I’m “fine”
Type
Then erase what I meant
[Chorus]
I hate my life
I hate this skin
Wish I could burn it and start again
So many hands that pulled me apart
Now I’m cracked
But I’m still holding my heart
I hate my life
I hate this day
Wish I could wash all the hurt away
So many scars that nobody sees
Yeah I’m cracked
But the crack’s how I breathe
[Bridge]
What if this shaking
Counts as a dance? (oh)
What if surviving
Still counts as a chance?
What if tomorrow
Whispers my name
And I say it back
Through all of the pain
[Chorus]
I hate my life
I hate this skin
Wish I could burn it and start again
So many hands that pulled me apart
I am cracked
But I’m still holding my heart
I hate my life
I hate this day
But there’s a pulse that won’t fade away
So many scars
But somehow I’m here
Yeah I’m cracked
And I’m singing through the fear
