Lighters

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel my tears? Can you hear my cry?
Can you heal my soul? Can you heal my mind?
You let me down time and time again
Tell my what am I, what am I here for?
Numb to life and I need to feel more
And I try and try time and time again

[Chorus]
Lighters to the sky, watch it burn down
World used to be mine, but it's yours now
Used to want the world now I watch the world burn down
Used to want it all, want it all, but I'm not sure now
Kept the pain inside for too long and it hurts now
I'ma battle life like Mike and it's the first round
I'ma keep swinging at life 'til it knocks me down, down, down

[Verse 1]
Maybe I learned to love wrong
Maybe I learned to love in a way that just won't last long
Maybe I tried to love you at a time that you ain't want love
Maybe that's just my way of letting you get away with it again
And I cannot breathe in a world you not in
And I stand by the sea tryna wash away my sins

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell my what am I, what am I here for?
Numb to life and I need to feel more
And I try and try time and time again

[Chorus]
Lighters to the sky, watch it burn down
World used to be mine, but it's yours now
Used to want the world now I watch the world burn down
Used to want it all, want it all, but I'm not sure now
Kept the pain inside for too long and it hurts now
I'ma battle life like Mike and it's the first round
I'ma keep swinging at life 'til it knocks me down, down, down

[Verse 2]
And I'ma get back up and keep on fighting, I won't go down for the count
Once they see that you winning, that's gon' be the only time that they coming around
Couldn't hang with them folks so I got out
Couldn't hang in the school so I dropped out
Couldn't hang in the school so I dropped out
Couldn't hang in the school so I dropped out
That don't make me no lesser, matter fact, I'm doing better
I don't want an explanation, if it makes me happy, I'm doing whatever
All the storms that I done weathered
Cold world and I ain't have a sweater
I talk 'bout my problems but not in a letter
I put on my headphones and talk to the metal
That's the only one that listens
I asked for forgiveness, they won't even give it
I'm battling demons, and no, I can't give in
'Cause I got [?]
I can't see in my dreams, can't make out a description
I tell 'em I'm hurting, they tell me I'm tripping
But I built this world that I have to live in
I built this world that I have to live in

[Chorus]
Lighters to the sky, watch it burn down
World used to be mine, but it's yours now
Used to want the world now I watch the world burn down
Used to want it all, want it all, but I'm not sure now
Kept the pain inside for too long and it hurts now
I'ma battle life like Mike and it's the first round
I'ma keep swinging at life 'til it knocks me down, down, down
