[Verse 1]
Oh, I
I thought I could stay high
But it's a fine line between paradise and paralysed
And sometimes, I don't even know why
I feel like I'm tongue-tied on the outside
God, I'm so tired
[Pre-Chorus]
And you said, "You don't have to carry this around"

To be happy, happy, happy now
'Cause I don't think I am
It just keeps slipping through my hands like golden sand
[Bridge]
But I'll keep trying, I'll keep trying
I'll keep trying, I'll keep trying
[Outro]
Don't we owe it to ourselves?
Don't we owe it to ourselves?
