[Verse 1]

I've been up all night

Every second burns a hole in my mind

Like I'm lost in time

Like I never really learned how to be alive

And I can't take much more of this pain

When anybody cares it's too late

Nothings making sense in this place anymore


[Chorus]

Days fading to nights and I cannot sleep like you're all the lights

And inside something is aching this time maybe I'm breaking

Oh I'm falling to pieces and nobody sees it

I'm losing it all so fast and I can't slow down


[Verse 2]

Where was everybody when I needed them

When I was all alone hanging off the edge

Trying to hold on praying this would end

And that I'd never wound up here again

I can't take much more of this pain

When anybody cares it's too late

Nothings making sense in this place anymore


[Chorus]

Days fading to nights and I cannot sleep like you're all the lights

And inside something is aching this time maybe I'm breaking

Oh I'm falling to pieces and nobody sees it

I'm losing it all so fast and I can't slow down


[Bridge]

And I can't slow down

And I can't slow down

And I can't slow down

And I can't slow down


[Chorus]

Days fading to nights and I can't sleep like you're all the lights

And inside something is aching this time maybe I'm breaking

Oh I'm falling to pieces and nobody sees it

I'm losing it all so fast and I can't slow down
