lyrics

crawling out of my skin like a shell
i spent my so called best years lying to myself
but i'm alright
i don't mind
everyone says i’m losing my head
looked for hope in bottles should’ve
searched myself instead
but i’m alright, i’m doing just fine
i’m doing just fine

there are more days like this one that’ll come
a shaky sense of hollowness and feeling all too much
but that’s okay
i know it will fade
people say they understand the pain
they have been through similar yet very different things
but that’s okay
life just goes that way
i always go this way

i worked so hard on finally trying to get better
will you just tell me what the hell you want from me
i fought it off over and over last november
now there are stars as far as my eyes can see
but sometimes
i miss the madness

i got a thousand times worse in virginia
who would’ve guessed it would all work out for me
she said “you’ve got the strength deep within ya”
now the strength is all that i can see
but sometimes
i crave the sadness

i’m not dying but i’m running out of patience
i’m not dying but i’m running out of time
i’m not dying but i’m running out of patience
i’m not dying but still wanna say goodbye
i’m not dying but i’m running out of patience
i’m not lying swear i’m running out of patience
