lyrics
I've gone and second-guessed it all again
Every single day just feels like it's the same day
Am I alone or are you there?
I'm overthrown by this despair
Will you still love me if I'm not the same?
I feel so hopeless in this tidal wave
And I'm suffocated by the bedroom walls
All the air is thick with tears and aerosols
Is it okay to be this scared?
I'm overthrown by this despair
Will you still love me if I'm not the same?
I feel so hopeless in this tidal wave
And if the lights go out will you still know my name?
I'm just so messed up by this tidal wave
I've gone and second-guessed it all again
