[Verse 1: Tyler Watt]
I try to keep it together but it's slipping through
Transitioning to a darker blue
It's taking anything that I've ever had
I've lost lovers, friends, just to tell you I'm sad
[Hook: Tyler Watt]
Dead life, I can't cope with this
Lost life, lost sight, lost everything
Grey blood runs through my veins
Flowing and can't be contained
[Verse 2: Tyler Watt]
Self-destructive, I'm self-destructing
I can't help, I'm pushing you away
I keep walking, I'm always walking
I'll never stop until I'm in my grave
[Pre-Chorus: Marcus Cisneros]
I am on my own
I've been locked outside with nowhere to go
As night turns to dawn, do I still need the sun?
[Chorus: Marcus Cisneros]
'Cause I've been lying in my coffin
For two years; Still thinking often
This isn't where I'm meant to be
I don't deserve to finally sleep
I've been lying in my coffin
For two years; Still thinking often
This isn't where I'm meant to be
I don't deserve to finally sleep
[Hook: Tyler Watt]
Dead life, I can't cope with shit
Lost life, lost sight, lost everything
Grey blood runs through my veins
Flowing and can't be contained
[Bridge: Tyler Watt]
Set myself up
Fall for the trap
Making mistakes
Ignoring the map
My compass is spinning
Times only thinning
I'm in hell still
Burning at both ends
I'm at war with the world and the way it should be
Look outside, I look outside
I don't want a part of it, don't want a part of it
I'm at war with the world and the way it should be
Look outside, I look outside
I don't want a part of it, don't want a part of it
[Pre-Chorus: Marcus Cisneros]
I am on my own
I've been locked outside with nowhere to go
As night turns to dawn, do I still need the sun?
[Chorus: Marcus Cisneros]
'Cause I've been lying in my coffin
For two years; Still thinking often
This isn't where I'm meant to be
I don't deserve to finally sleep
I've been lying in my coffin
For two years; Still thinking often
This isn't where I'm meant to be
I don't deserve to finally sleep
[Outro: Marcus Cisneros, Tyler Watt]
I'm at war with myself and the man I should be
I look in the mirror, he never looks back at me
I'm at war with myself and the man I should be
I look in the mirror, he never looks back at me
I've been lying in my coffin
For two years; Still thinking often
This isn't where I'm meant to be
I don't deserve to finally sleep
I've been lying in my coffin
For two years, I'm still thinking often
This isn't where I'm meant to be
I don't deserve to finally sleep
