[Verse 1]

In the beginning, it was worth this

Do the worst, feel complete

Passing standards others meet

Now perfect endings make you anxious

A heavy head, a colder sweat

Leaving nothing here, nothing to regret

[Chorus]

Why am I still suffocated?

I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive

Why am I still suffocated?

I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive

[Verse 2]

I miss the old days that we murdered

They're so far gone, we're out of reach

Watch 'em fade with summer's heat (Well, it goes like this)

Without a break from this distraction

I need a change, a different scene (A new approach to coming clean)

[Chorus]

Why am I still suffocated?

I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive

Why am I still suffocated?

I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive

[Bridge]

(Still searching for a back door out of here

Reassured that my friends will reappear)

Why am I still suffocated?

Hold your breathe deep and I'll keep waiting

(Still searching for a back door out of here

Reassured that my friends will reappear)

Why am I still suffocated?

Well, hold your breath deep and I'll keep waiting, waiting

[Chorus]

Why am I still suffocated?

I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive

Why am I still suffocated?

I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive (Whoa-whoa)
