lyrics

Times a long drive, roaming your life and you're the only one awake.
A dim future lit by the headlights it's the night you can't escape
I've been running for a bit too long,
I'm not tryin that anymore

Ooh ooh ooooh x2

I'm sorry that I've never been good enough
One step at a time and I keep screwing this up
Living breath to breath isn't worth the rush
When There's nothing for me here

But even now I can't stop trying to find something better

I'm reaching out but there's nothing there
(Oooo)
Am I giving up, or do I just not care?
(Oooo)
And if it was worth starting everything over, another day that I won't stay sober,
Hellbent on holding my breath too long

I'm always guilty of saying too much
There's always something wrong that they see
They all act as if they give a fuck,
And they keep asking

Why are you cryin?
(I've got a rush like I'm late to being sane again)
Why are holding your head down?
(An aging spiral walks me up and wears my mind thin)
I can't believe I've turned myself against my own will, holding the knife to my throat

I don't deserve all the space in your head
Keep Looking for answers I never wanted you to hear
And I hope it was worth the strain i put on your heart
