November

[Intro]
November leaves are falling, but I can't let go
Echoes of the past are whispering, they won't leave me slow
It's that time again, when the shadows grow deep
Burdened by my heartbreak, I can't find sleep

[Verse 1]
Every year, the same cold wind blow
Memories of loves I used to know
Built-up stress, it shows on my skin
Hives of pain that bleed within
I try to hide, I try to run
But the pain's a shadow, never done

[Pre-Chorus]
I close my doors, block out the light
Walking through my darkest night
It's unfair to the world I love
Caught in a storm I can't push above

[Chorus]
I'm not built for this, this heavy weight
Carrying heartbreak, bearing my fate
Exhausted, worn thin, I fall apart
Bearing the sadness in my broken heart
Excuse me while I burden you all
My yearly fall, my mental crawl

[Bridge]
January long past, I try to heal
But the ache remains, it's all too real
Year after year, I face this fight
In the cold November night

[Outro]
So here I stand, with tears unshed
Wishing I could leave this dread
Built up stress, it makes me bleed
I need some peace, I need to be freed
