[Verse 1]

If I'd had known that from the minute I was born

That the price of my existence

Would be the weight of expectation

Then I wouldn't fucking be here

How can I focus on the life I'm "supposed to lead"

When every day I struggle with existing?

[Verse 2]

I've dug a hole so deep

In my mind that I can no longer see

The light of the sun

I can no longer hear

The voices of people I love

[Verse 3]

I've been breaking my hands

Trying to carry the burden that I've placed on myself

I'm so afraid of the end

I've led myself to believe

I may never be happy again

[Verse 4]

I think the hardest part of all

Is trying to justify self-deprecation

When I am constantly surrounded by sources

Of love and affection

I know that I'm not on my own

But I can't shake the feeling

That I'm in this alone

There's no one that I feel safe with

[Verse 5]

All I've wanted for so long

Is to succumb to a sleep

That I am not afraid of

[Bridge]

Give me the strength to love myself

As I am told that I am loved

May I believe, despite my doubt

That someday I'll be good enough

Give me the strength to love myself

As I am told that I am loved

May I believe, despite my doubt

That someday I'll be good enough

[Breakdown]

Hindsight is a miserable thing

When you don't know where you're going

And you don't care where you've been

Hindsight is a miserable thing

When you don't know where you're going

And you don't care where you've been
