about

a song about mental illness and trying to deal with it i guess

this was the second song i wrote for the album and its consistently been one of my favorites

lyrics

i think im losing my mind
mood switching up all the time
and in the end it just fixates on the empty
so get me out of my mind
its so hard to stay alive
when every day im so tired of being me
i know that you are tired and motivation is hard to keep
but when youre empty and exhausted and you wanna go back to sleep
you need to

try to get out of bed and
try to get through your head that
life i worth living
and it is worth trying so i will
try to get through this life and
try to get through the night
without thinking about
all the mistakes i have made within my life

why do i feel this way
everything feels so gray
and nothing that i do can seem to fix it
sometimes i feel like im on autopilot
not in control of my life and looking in from a distance
i know that you are tired and motivation is hard to keep
but when youre empty and exhausted and you wanna go back to sleep
you need to

try to get out of bed and
try to get through your head that
life i worth living
and it is worth trying so i will
try to get through this life and
try to get through the night
without thinking about
all the mistakes i have made within my life

nuclear winter whatever
i taste metal and bleed sugar
self acceptance and painkillers
popping pills so i feel better
idolize self medication
criticize self isolation
demonize self mutilation
save me from my self destruction

try to get out of bed and
try to get through your head that
life i worth living
and it is worth trying so i will
try to get through this life and
try to get through the night
without thinking about
all the mistakes i have made within my life
