[Verse 1]
Dying isn't hard
It's the living that bites
Every grin I wear
Got a crack in the side
Boots full of dust
Heart full of lead
I'm hanging on tight
By a thread in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of the strain
Tired of the bend
Every day I lose
A little more skin
If this is the test
Then I know the rule
The worst part ain't gone
It's what keeps you whole
[Chorus]
Bustin' at the seams
Bustin' at the seams
It ain't the end that scares me
It's the way I bleed
Bustin' at the seams
Bustin' at the seams
Dying don't look so bad
When living comes clean
[Verse 2]
Coffee gone cold
On a chipped up plate
Phone on the table
But nobody stays
I'm a front porch ghost
With a busted grin
Trying to hold my shape
While the edges give in
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of the strain
Tired of the bend
Every day I lose
A little more skin
If this is the test
Then I know the rule
The worst part ain't gone
It's what keeps you whole
[Chorus]
Bustin' at the seams
Bustin' at the seams
It ain't the end that scares me
It's the way I bleed
Bustin' at the seams
Bustin' at the seams
Dying don't look so bad
When living comes clean
[Bridge]
Don't call it a win
Don't call it a fall
I'm just a hard road song
With a tear in it all
[Chorus]
Bustin' at the seams
Bustin' at the seams
It ain't the end that scares me
It's the way I bleed
Bustin' at the seams
Bustin' at the seams
Dying don't look so bad
When living comes clean
