[Verse 1]

I gotta pack it up now

I think I need to get out, yeah

'Cause you hurt, you hurt, hurt me so bad

So why do I want to come back now?

I don't think I'm deserving

Of anything working

I just wanna feel worth it


[Chorus]

I'm looking for a permanent solution

To a temporary problem

I thought that I had left the maze

But I sank right to the bottom

Of the ocean floor

Thought I wanted more

Saw what's left in store

But I just can't find it anymore


[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

I just can't find it anymore


[Verse 2]

I've made so many mistakes

And it's just too much to take

Does what I'm saying

Seem fake or artificial?

'Cause I can't seem to rid myself of

All of the bad that comes my way

And all of this nonstop

Fucking pain

Why do I hide myself away?

I just don't think I should stay


[Chorus]

I'm looking for a permanent solution

To a temporary problem

I thought that I had left the maze

But I sank right to the bottom

Of the ocean floor

Thought I wanted more

Saw what's left in store

But I just can't find it anymore


[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

I just can't find it anymore


[Bridge]

I live without caution and promise

And to be honest

That hasn't changed

There's just so many expectations

And preparations I haven't made

I live without caution and promise

And to be honest

That hasn't changed

There's just so many expectations

And preparations I haven't made


[Chorus]

I'm looking for a permanent solution

To a temporary problem

I thought that I had left the maze

But I sank right to the bottom

Of the ocean floor

Thought I wanted more

I'm just so unsure

But I just can't find it anymore


[Outro]

Woah, oh, oh

Woah, oh, oh

Thought I wanted more

I just can't find it anymore

Woah, oh, oh

Woah, oh, oh

I'm just so unsure

I just can't find it anymore
