I fell asleep with the lights on
The ringing in my ears was a wakeup call
The words you said still circling in my head
It was a reminder
I felt like a failure
Why is it every time I think
I seem to drown before I sink?
The lines in my hands are still the same
The names and the faces all rearranged
The pain that I feel won’t be here for long
It’s already done and it’s time to move on
And everything is all right, I’m fine
It’s on the back of my mind, what I’ve done to survive
The timing, to everything
A fever dream or the real thing?
So when it all falls down, without a doubt, I’d give up anything
Remembering, and holding on to what held me down
You’ll get what you want when I go
In too many ways I’ve deprived honesty
To myself, to my dreams, thinking through what I thought I might be
And I won’t be a casualty
Have you notice lately?
One by one, days are fading
Forget what you know enough not to show
Cornerstones, they get thrown, am I still standing on my own?
Have you noticed lately?
One by one, days are fading
And there’s no sense in waiting
On every sign to pass you by
And everything is all right, I’m fine
It’s on the back of my mind, what I’ve done to survive
The timing, to everything
A fever dream or the real thing?
So when it all falls down, without a doubt, I’d give up anything
Remembering, and holding on to what held me down
