lyrics

I’m at war with myself
I can’t breathe I can’t sleep at night
These voices inside my head
Keep telling me to break and telling me to bend

It’s a long way down
and I’m standing on the edge
come take my hand
show me a better place to live

‘cause nothing makes sense anymore
I’m just climbing the fence anymore
Trying to run away and hide
The only question I have is why

Somethings gotta give
I feel like I’m being pulled
from the left and the right
It’s like an amusement park
and I’m on a ride
I just can’t get off
