lyrics

I've gotten used to the view from my window,
I watch the world ignite while I burn slow.
I just wish I knew what you expect from me.

Today,
I needed to get away.
Because I don't know
Who I've been as of late

I'll be fine
If you give me time,
To get it right.

I can't sleep
Alone with my mind
I can't stand
and watch myself be the
Reason I get left behind.

I watched the fall leaves fade,
And as I did I felt okay
Looking at the world,
And feeling for a second like I could relate

My roots have grown weak
Since I lost my sense of home
I've been wandering through wonder
To keep myself from going under alone

Today,
I needed to get away
Because I'll just keep sinking
If I stay

And the mountains looked so beautiful
But they never made me feel as small
As you did, and you said stay strong
Hold tight let's just get through the night
You swore you didn't lie
That everything would end up just fine
But you did

I watched the fall leaves fade,
And as I did I felt okay
Looking at the world,
And feeling for a second like I could relate.

My roots have grown weak
Since I lost my sense of home
I've been wandering through wonder
To keep myself from going under alone.

Please pull me out
Of this hole I've been digging around myself
Before I build up these walls into a wishing well
And wish for better days
And better ways
To keep my mind at ease
To keep me from going under
To keep me from finding my fate at sea
