[Chorus]

Melancholic, I’m too deep in my sorrow

I do it to myself but he’d make it harder

Sometimes I find it hard to breathe with my eyes closed

And lately I can’t even think, where’d my mind go?

I don’t know where it went

And I been the edge

So I’ma put up my defense

I been feeling so pent up

That I can’t even reflect

And I’ve kept up my head

So long I forgot the reason

It’s a reflex


[Verse 1]

And now I ain't got no friends

I ain't got shit to my name

Swear I’ll nevеr see the end

I swear that it’s all thе same

I wish that I could pretend

That I had fucking amnesia

Or could feel love again

In any part of my being

Backstabbed, and I still feel the edge

Back track, do it over again

I can’t get it out of my head

I can’t get it out of my head

Tear ducts all dried up and abused

I’m stuck, and there’s no cutting loose

No luck, swear to god there’s no use


[Chorus]

Melancholic, I’m too deep in my sorrow

I do it to myself but she’d make it harder

Sometimes I find it hard to breathe with my eyes closed

And lately I can’t even think, where’d my mind go?

I don’t know where I went

And I been the edge

So I’ma put up my defense

I been feeling so pent up

That I can’t even reflect

And I’ve kept up my head

So long I forgot the reason

It’s a refle-


[Verse 2]

Knock me off my balance

Bitch, I have none

I can’t find my grounding

I can’t stand up

I’m so fucking calloused

I’m so damn numb

Don’t comment on that story, and don’t make that post

Don’t speak to anybody, they can’t ever know

My face ID can’t recognize me through the tears

And I hate what I see when I look in the mirror

So fucking naive

To think that you are unbreakable

Bitch, roll up your sleeve

Because your heart is too hatable

Been so fucking long

Forever feels like a while now

My face in a cloth

I desperately try to cry out

Wish I was anyone else

Anyone but myself

Wish I could just fucking leave

But I can’t ever get help

My wounds will never heal, each day I bleed out

And I can’t lift my arms, I’ll never reach out


[Outro]
