Lyrics

I remember the first taste, just a sip of the night,
A little pill to take the edge, felt like I was flying high.
Chasing the thrill in the dark, trying to feel alive,
But the more I reached for the sky, the more I lost the light.

But the bottle’s getting heavy, and my mind’s a blurry haze,
The nights are getting longer, lost inside this endless maze.
I swore I’d be in control, but I’m slipping every day,
Now the things I thought were saving me are pulling me away.

Oh, I’m drowning in the high, but I can’t touch the ground,
Every drink, every line, just to keep from coming down.
I’m running from the pain, but it’s catching up somehow,
Fading in the darkness, and I don’t know how to get out.

Woke up with a stranger’s face, don’t remember what I said,
I’m a shadow of myself, living in my head.
Thought it would make me free, but I’m locked inside instead,
All these highs keep crashing down, leaving me half-dead.

The rush is turning empty, the thrill is wearing thin,
I can’t find the way back home from the mess I’m sinking in.
I swore I’d be untouchable, but now I’m caving in,
The fire I was playing with is burning through my skin.

Oh, I’m drowning in the high, but I can’t touch the ground,
Every drink, every line, just to keep from coming down.
I’m running from the pain, but it’s catching up somehow,
Fading in the darkness, and I don’t know how to get out.

Is there a way to feel alive without falling apart?
Can I find myself again without tearing out my heart?
The weight of every moment’s getting harder to hold,
But I want to live, not just survive this endless cold.

Oh, I’m drowning in the high, but I can’t touch the ground,
Every drink, every line, just to keep from coming down.
I’m running from the pain, but it’s catching up somehow,
Fading in the darkness, and I don’t know how to get out.

Fading in the darkness, I’m reaching for the light,
Maybe I can find a way to leave it all behind.
Fading in the darkness, but I’m still holding tight,
Searching for a reason, praying for the fight.
