lyrics

I've learned a lot lately
About what it means to grieve
And what it means to feel
Empty

How it feels to fall apart
How it feels to be a part
Of your own downfall

These days
I'm just trying to cope
My insecurities have bound me
And tied me down like rope

Frayed and forgotten
Left sinking in this mess
That we call hope

And I'm afraid
That I too might be forgotten
One day if not already
My lungs are beggers
Left grasping at every petty change

Because I know how I've been lately
Is no way to live your life
So change is all I can hope for
To find a new light

To guide me home
To bring me in out of the storm
To keep me from being washed away at sea
To find my sinking destiny

My love did go south
And stayed forever
Washed away and flooded
Like storm drains in this weather

Overflowing
At least that's how it feels
To have too much too soon
Left with no time to heal

No time to sleep
To get away from myself
To get away from my life
Cause lately it's just gotten too real

I'm just a lost soul waiting for my train
Waiting for my turn to get away
Is there room for one more
On your journey to a different place

Called nowhere
Cause that seems to be my destination
I'm wandering in search of reasons
For my fascination with disaster.

I read these lines like broken ties
To a broken home
I've been flirting with heartbreak
Like it's the only thing I know

I spend my nights wondering
Where it all went wrong
Why everyone left
But if I'm being honest,
I can't say i don't know
Why I ended up alone
