[Verse 1]
All this nervousness surrounding me
(Longing for)
A little piece of normality
(I don’t know)
Why can’t you hear my silent screams
(Let me out)
Why does it seem like no one is listening?
[Chorus 1]
Sick, of people in my ear
I live in constant fear
They all act like there’s nothing wrong me
I, can’t carry on this way
Just want a simple day
My better self is just a memory
[Verse 2]
My weary body is becoming weak
(Every day)
A practiced lie, with what I speak
(Overwhelmed)
The pressure builds and I can’t breathe
(So it seems)
Why does it seem like no one is listening?
[Chorus 2]
I’m far from being fine
Where do I draw the line
I must accept my better self is just a memory
I’m tired of standing by
Pretending all the time
Weighed down
[Verse 1]
All this nervousness surrounding me
(Longing for)
A little piece of normality
(I don’t know)
Why can’t you hear my silent screams
(Let me out)
Why does it seem like no one is listening?
[Bridge / Breakdown]
(Your callous words, they conquer me)
(I show the world what I want it to see)
Conquer me
I can't breathe
Your callous words, they conquer me
I show the world what I want it to see
Weighed down, unable to think straight
I’d give everything to feel nothing again
[Chorus 2]
I’m far from being fine
Where do I draw the line
I must accept my better self is just a memory
I’m tired of standing by
Pretending all the time
I must accept my better self is just a memory
[Ending]
Conquer me
I can't breathe
Your callous words, they conquer me
I show the world what I want it to see
Weighed down, unable to think straight
I’d give everything to feel nothing again
