[Verse]
The doubts are swarming in my head
Down deep in the limbo
I try my best to filter it
Fight for the answers
It's starting to take control again
Somehow, I won't let go
The premonition of worthlessness
Fear that I'm dead

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, these doubts, let go
All these doubts, let me out
[Chorus]
Search for a reason
Hope dying slowly
I'm trapped dealing with the outside, let me out
I'm falling
My hope dying slowly
I'm trapped dealing with the outside, let me out
I'm trapped on the inside, let me out
Hope dying slowly
I'm trapped dealing with the outside, let me out
I'm trapped on the inside, let me out
