[Intro (Haddon)]

I know I'm broke or I'm in chains

Hate this picture that I paint

The loop I've made myself enslaved to

Can't begin to wash away


[Verse 1 (Gridd)]

Approaching storms torment my norms it's not okay

From the start of a new morning and a new day

The start of a - wait!

What mask will I wear today?

Will they break me down and break the sound of voices that say it's okay?

I'll fade away until I hear the hope of a tomorrow

But tomorrow isn't promised when the voices shortly follow

I have two modes that always go:

I feel pain or I feel hollow

The ball of stress from chest to brain is here to stay it isn't borrowed


[Verse 1]

Ten from zero, rocking boat, as I can't even breathe hardly

Anti-hero symbiote that latched itself to Tom Hardy

Thoughts and fears are driven here and driven clear by third parties

I may be overthinking, but I'm sinking here and I am sorry


[Pre-Chorus (Gridd)]

Why can't you release me?

I can't believe things

I need you to

Save me (3x)


[Chorus (Haddon)]

I know I'm broke or I'm in chains

Hate this picture that I paint

The loop I've made myself enslaved to

Can't begin to wash away

Please draw near, please give me faith

I need a light, I need some strength

The loop I've made myself enslaved to

Can't begin to wash away


[Verse 2]

Don't want to have to vent

But it doesn't seem I got a heaven sent

Everyone's supporting me until I start unloading things

So then I start recording things and find it hit or miss

I don't really want to go through

It's not like I really chose to

So I break into the mold you brought

You brought into the fold


[Verse 2]

You gave me the creative mind with my

Creative door to hide behind

But I locked and left the keys inside

Now I have to rea-mind my line

Realign my mind

Redesign the lies

Read between the lines

Re-define the grind

Re-assess my crimes

Re-suppress the light

Re-confess the night

Re-confess what's right

Why?


[Chorus (Gridd)]

Why can't you release me?

I can't believe things

I need you to

Save me (3x)

From what I can't control

These three are taking toll

Of what I can't control

I need you to save me


[Verse 3]

Three figures always follow me:

Depression, Doubt, Anxiety

The first one and third like to share some things

The second is kind of embarrassing

He strikes when I want to just burry things

Then death becomes less of a scary thing

Their hands on my chest and they stare at me

Truth is barely a heralding heresy


[Verse 3]

I will try to survive

With what you made of my life

I will hold what's inside

They'll carve it out with a knife

This strain in my brain, migraine, insane

Refrain from making it about me

It's attention I seek. (?)

Will I break through to you when my heart starts to speak?


[Outro (Haddon)]

I know I'm broke or I'm in chains

Hate this picture that I paint

The loop I've made myself enslaved to

Can't begin to wash away
