lyrics

In retrospect, I can't lie
I've been trying way too hard
Sometimes the floating feels alright
Till every part of me gives up

Cause it's so exhausting
Feeling this way
Sunken eyes and sleepless nights
Of crawling out, crawling out
Shuffling wonders
Of what people will say
Hopeless ties and other lies
It's coming down, coming down

What did you think you'd see
When you tried to call on me
Sorry that I can't always
Stick around, stick around
While you give it all
I'd never let you see me bleed
I'm sorry that I'm always underground now

My pale complexion takes the light again
When did your hair grow out so long?
Seeing you without me looks just right
Even if it always feels so wrong

Cause it's so exhausting
Feeling this way
Endless fights, no appetite
Still full of doubt, full of doubt
Shuffling wonders of how I will decay
A heavy chest, so out of breath
It's creeping now, creeping out

What did you think you'd see
When you tried to call on me
Wish I could stay with you to
Stick it out, stick it out
While you give it all
I'd never let you see me bleed
I'm sorry that I am aways
Underground now
Underground now

It's so exhausting
Hope you know I never mean to let you down
Forever pondering
If you could see me now
