Lyrics

(lyr)

(v1)

I’ve always been the one who figures it out

When the lights go dead and the money runs out

Never been good at saying I’m lost

I just eat the pain, I just eat the cost

I don’t lean on favors, don’t beg, don’t plead

I learned real young how to bleed in silence, breathe

I smile through hell like I’m bulletproof

But even iron breaks when it’s telling the truth

(pre)

I wear my pride like a loaded gun

Pointed at myself when the damage is done

(ch)

I don’t ask for help, that ain’t my way

I drink it down, yeah, day by day

Stuck in a loop of survive or die

Nowhere feels safe, nowhere feels mine

I’ve walked these streets with nothing left

But bad decisions and no regrets

I don’t ask for help — I just get numb

Tryna outdrink the shit I’ve become

(v2)

I’ve slept where hope don’t make it past dawn

Chasing peace with my boots still on

You can’t build shit on broken ground

Can’t hear God when the noise too loud

I give my all till there’s nothing left

Then call it strength when it’s self-destruct

I say I’m fine, yeah I lie real good

But I’m bleeding inside like a man who should

(pre)

Some nights the silence hits like fists

And pride’s the worst addiction there is

(ch)

I don’t ask for help, I hold it in

Bottle it up, let the demons win

I’m stuck between fuck it and fuck my life

One more drink just to make it through the night

I burned my bridges, watched them fall

Still act like I don’t feel it all

I don’t ask for help — I just endure

Hoping this pain don’t turn permanent

(br)

This ain’t a cry, this ain’t a plea

This is me staring down the real me

Tired of running, tired of lies

Tired of losing pieces just to survive

(drop)

I’m not broken — I’m worn the fuck out

Not heartless — just hollow now

Still breathing but barely alive

Hanging on by a thread and a lie

(ch)

I don’t ask for help, but here I stand

With shaking hands and no backup plan

If there’s a way out, I need it now

‘Cause I can’t keep living half-drowned

I’ve carried this weight my whole damn life

But tonight I’m done pretending I’m fine

I don’t ask for help — I ask for light

Before this dark eats me alive

(out)

I don’t ask for help

I just don’t wanna drown
