Verse 1
I lost the wheel somewhere along the road,
Trading pieces of myself for another load.
Every promise broke beneath my feet,
Now I’m chasing ghosts down every street.
The mirror shows a stranger wearing my face,
Running in circles, never leaving this place.
One bad choice turned into a thousand more,
And I can’t remember what I’m fighting for.
Chorus
I’m out of control, sinking fast,
Drowning in the wreckage of my past.
Every high pulls me deeper down,
Till I can barely see above the ground.
I keep reaching for another escape,
While addiction tightens its grip like a chain.
I’m out of control, I can’t let go,
And I’m drowning in the life I chose.
Verse 2
The nights get longer, the mornings hurt,
Another empty bottle, another stained shirt.
Friends disappeared while I looked away,
And I watched my whole world decay.
I swore each time would be the last,
But the lies kept coming back so fast.
Now the silence screams inside my head,
And I’m haunted by the words I never said.
Chorus
I’m out of control, sinking fast,
Drowning in the wreckage of my past.
Every high pulls me deeper down,
Till I can barely see above the ground.
I keep reaching for another escape,
While addiction tightens its grip like a chain.
I’m out of control, I can’t let go,
And I’m drowning in the life I chose.
Verse 3
Never thought I’d be shooting up alone,
In a cold dark room so far from home.
Crossing lines I swore I’d never cross,
Counting every dream and every loss.
I barely recognize the woman I’ve become,
Numbing all the pain till I feel numb.
Looking for a way to turn around,
Before I’m buried six feet in the ground.
Bridge
I keep searching for the person I was,
Before the white lines, before the buzz.
Before I buried every dream I had,
Under all the choices gone so bad.
The water rises, I can feel it now,
And I don’t even remember how
I drifted this far from solid ground,
Lost in the dark and going down.
Final Chorus
I’m out of control, losing sight,
Fading further into the night.
Every road I take just bends,
Back to where the damage never ends.
Still I’m reaching through the pain,
Hoping there’s something left to save.
I’m out of control, but somewhere below,
A part of me still wants to let go.
Drowning drowning someone help me
