[Verse 1]
Feel my face hit the floor
Cold hardwood stings, but you pick me up
Hold my hand, show me love
Fill my lungs, oh, never good enough
Free my mind, clear my head
Motionless fall to oblivion
Cell by cell, thread by thread
Every piece breaks into millions

Down, down, down
[Chorus]
I been losing touch
I'm breaking up
One by one
These threads I've held
They've come undone
One by one
One by one
One by one
One by one
One by one
