If you're losing sleep, forgive me. I just can't keep pretending.
I'm packing my bags cause I don't wanna be, The only one who's drowning in their misery.
And I'll take that chance, cause I just wanna breathe.
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be, how it's supposed to be.
There's a prism by the window.
It lets the light leak in.
I wish you would let me.
You feel the water but do you swim.
And it's only me, empty-handed.
With a childish grin, and a camera,
I'm packing my bags cause I don't wanna be, the only one who's drowning in their misery.
And I'll take that chance cause I just wanna breathe.
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be
I'm packing my bags cause I don't wanna be la da da da the only one who's drowning in their misery.
And I'll take that chance, cause I just wanna breathe.
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be how it's supposed to be.
Here I am, Take me. It's easier to give in. Some people mistake me. They only hear what they want to hear. If you're losing sleep, forgive me. I just can't keep pretending. I'm packing my bags cause I don't wanna be, The only one who's drowning in their misery. And I'll take that chance, cause I just wanna breathe. And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be, how it's supposed to be. There's a prism by the window. It lets the light leak in. I wish you would let me. You feel the water but do you swim. And it's only me, empty-handed. With a childish grin, and a camera, I'm packing my bags cause I don't wanna be, the only one who's drowning in their misery. And I'll take that chance cause I just wanna breathe. And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be I'm packing my bags cause I don't wanna be la da da da the only one who's drowning in their misery. And I'll take that chance, cause I just wanna breathe. And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be how it's supposed to be. Explain Request ×
