Everyone is gonna die
Except for me, I'm gonna live an uncommonly long life
Everyone I ever love, I'll have to tell them all goodbye
And every night I'll wonder the fuck couldn't I also die?
When I awake from this bad dream, I'll wish I was back asleep - away from life
When your nightmares are still easier than real life
And you're well aware there's not an ounce left in you for the fight
I don't really wanna try, to say so would be a lie
But everyday that passes by makes me feel less and less alive
I don't wanna be a burden
But I'm being such a burden
Everyone is gonna text or call when they hear song
Thanks, I love you all
But I won't have to reply or acknowledge that you tried
And I promise you I never once thought to leave this ride
Because I'm fine, I can say I'm fine
Cross my heart and hope to die, I swear I'm fucking fine
Everyone is well aware I'm not that good at lying
I did everything, I did everything
I did everything right today
When your nightmares are still easier than real life
And you're well aware there's not an ounce left in you for the fight
I don't really wanna try, to say so would be a lie
But everyday that passes by makes me feel less and less alive
I did everything, I did everything right
