lyrics

Shut my mouth cause I don’t know what might come out
And I’d run away right now if it was okay
My tired bones keep trying to stay afloat but I’m not so sure that I could find the strength

I need some room to breathe cause I’m getting tired of holding my breath
And I don’t know how to feel when I’m in the bed that I’ve made for myself

Constant noise I’m sorry I can’t hear much my deafening fears are still keeping me awake
With my shoulders back don’t show them I’m falling flat no matter the cost of what this always takes

I need some room to breathe cause I’m getting tired of holding my breath
And I don’t know how to feel when I’m in the bed that I’ve made for myself

I can’t make sense of what is real when I’m not here and I’m not here
I have forgotten how it feels to be so free when I’m not free
And I’m just a mountain caving in
After all this time
I have broken myself down

And I need some room to breathe cause I’m getting tired of holding my breath
And I don’t know how to feel when I’m in the bed that I’ve made for myself
I need some room to breathe cause I’m getting tired of holding my breath
And I don’t know how to feel when I’m in the bed that I’ve made for myself
