[Verse 1]
Waking up on the floor
With no one else in the room

Thought that I'd be sheltered

But I lay here awake
Too afraid to dream
'Cause if I might have to face myself, I'll buckle at my knees

Pushed my pain aside 'cause I could never give it to those
'Cause I never see the point in sharing defeat
Displaying my debts to the world
I just live in repeat, vacant and desperate
[Chorus]
Tell me one last time
How I never tried
[Outro]
And if tomorrow I don't wake up
Just know I really tried to make the best of your forgiveness
And tell my brother he'll be fine
