[Verse 1: Richard Rogers]

Took a lot to get to 27

My knees are weak, but I'm still standing

I wasn't meant for making it

But I'm not the type to call it quits

Colly, but trying to be clean

Breaking but still in one piece

Hanging on, hanging on

But I feel like we're slipping

[Chorus: Richard Rogers]

We win some, but lose most

These close calls keep us close

This life is wearing thin, it's eating at my skin

We can't keep reflecting, just keep oppressing

On, and on and on until we find where we belong

[Verse 2: Richard Rogers]

I can't seem to get past all my problems

Try my best, but never solve them

I was never one for making it

And I think it's finally sinking in

Colly and not coming clean

Breaking and losing each piece

Falling down and falling down

No one's reaching out to catch me

[Breakdown: Wade Walters & Richard Rogers]

What's it gonna take for me to find my way?

I can't keep struggling to always finish in last place

Am I just wasting all my time? Chasing the wrong life?

I just wanna be, I just need to be

Free from the judgement when all vote against me

Free from opinions they built, but now I strike back

Can you even hear me? I'm fucking screaming

I just wanna be heard, will someone save me?

Bring me to safety?

[Chorus: Richard Rogers]

We win some, but lose most

These close calls keep us close

This life is wearing thin, it's eating at my skin

We can't keep reflecting, just keep oppressing

On, and on and on until we find where we belong

[Post-Chorus: Richard Rogers]

And I've given everything, given everything

But I get nothing, get nothing

And I'm not giving in, not giving in

My knees are weak, but I'm still standing

[Bridge: Richard Rogers]

Everyone tells me to stay strong

But I've got nothing to hold on

Everyone tells me to stay strong

But I've got nothing to hold on

Everyone tells me to stay strong

But I've got nothing

[Verse 3: Richard Rogers]

Lately my heart is a mess where anxiety nests

I feel invested in stress like it's all I have left

Every failure's a debt and they're up to my neck

I'm fucking drowning in doubt and there's no swimming out

[Outro: Richard Rogers]

Everyone tells me to stay strong

But I've got nothing to hold on

Everyone tells me to stay strong

But I've got nothing
