[Verse 1]
Clutching on to a cold coffee cup
Another day alone I'm waiting
I'll see further than this town's four walls
Using trains as an escape route
The trees blur out the carriage windows
Just not enough to clear my mind
[Chorus]
Where's the relief?
I can't find peace
Give me release
Forgot how to speak
I've paid my time
I don't feel alright
I can't be alone
Once more I'm tired
[Verse 2]
Happiness lies in a dosage
You give in so you can function
How else do you fight when there's no cure?
Moods determined by figures
Every thought makes me sicker
I'm in debt to obsession, a chemical bore
[Chorus]
Where's the relief?
I can't find peace
Give me release
Forgot how to speak
I've paid my time
I don't feel alright
I can't be alone
Once more I'm tired
[Outro]
I can't be alone
Once more—
I've paid my time
I don't feel alright
I can't be alone
Once more I'm tired
I'm tired
