lyrics

I've looked my demons in the eye,
and yet they're still here to fight,
Bringing these nightmares.
I feel you here with me,
Dripping down my wall,
I can't find relief,
another lost belief.

And I find myself torn,
Torn between life and sleep.
Another week of losing my mind,
Another week dragging behind.

I'm trapped in this loop,
The needle skips to the beat.

Just keep your head up,
Don't let the weight,
Take you for granted.
The thought of losing again,
A thought I can not defend.

I say this now but I know I'm too late.
I can win the battle but I'm not sure of the war.
As the smoke clears and we try to figure out what all this was for.
If cutting our own lives short for the air of another was worth it.
I know you would have been worth it,
But the battle took you too.
I can't begin to understand how or why we wound up here,
But I know I learned the lesson that was worth fighting for.
A whole year later,
And I'm still trying to process,
Why you had to go,
What your life should have had to hold.
I can't help but think of you when I'm driving alone,
Counting the lines to keep my eyes open.
When the wind blows,
I wonder what you would've had to say,
And when the rains come,
I feel you wash away.

I'm sorry I'm losing touch with your ghost,
just remember to stay close.
I know that none of this was my fault,
But I can't help but feel like there was something I could have done.

I'm sorry I stopped writing letters,
And I'm sorry I took you for granted.
There were so many things I still want to say,
but I know I'm calling the dead.

(Just stay close)

I'm sorry I'm losing touch with your ghost,
Just remember to stay close.
There were so many things I still want to say,
But I know I'm calling the dead
Somewhere along the way I lost my head,
Somewhere along the way I made my bed,
Somewhere along the way I lost my head.

I think I lost my...
