When the world don't seem to love you When the nights won't seem to end When all you seem to think about's How did it come to this When everything aligns And it all just falls apart You're busy with the details Not following your heart Is it like the sky is falling And you've got open arms? Are you seeking out the shelter? Are you waiting for the scars? Does it always rain On the sunniest of days? Do you hate facing the mirror And writing your own name? [ Hey I'm afraid of the dark I haven't found a purpose on the side of the road I haven't found a meaning in none of the notes Hey I'm afraid of the dark I haven't found a reason in the words that I say And I'm still lookin for an answer each and every day but I won't give up, I won't let go again So fed up, I know this ain't the end Don't give up and don't let go again There's some reason, you know this ain't the end Hey I'm afraid of the dark Hey I'm afraid of the dark ] When you look up from the ground What is it you see? Avenues of gold? Or dead end broken streets? Does nothing ever seem Like it's really worth the trouble? Take the weight of all the world On your back and make it double Tell me in your soul Did you lose all of your passion? The heart inside your chest Only beating cause you're anxious? Tell me from your heart Are you wasting every day? Are you waiting for what's next While you're stumbling through the haze? [ Hey I'm afraid of the dark I haven't found a purpose on the side of the road I haven't found a meaning in none of the notes Hey I'm afraid of the dark I haven't found a reason in the words that I say And I'm still lookin for an answer each and every day but I won't give up, I won't let go again So fed up, I know this ain't the end Don't give up and don't let go again There's some reason, you know this ain't the end Don't give up and don't let go again There's some reason, you know this ain't the end Hey I'm afraid of the dark Hey I'm afraid of the dark ]

Maybe I'm just sick of waiting for things to better So I'm looking through the tools for some rusty scissors to sever I could cut and tear and rip apart the seams of whatever If I could get a hit of hope, I could go on forever What's another burden when the world's on your shoulders? And I'm just tryna understand why is everybody is loaded Because they're bent over with some kinda somethin or other And they don't wanna admit it but I know that they're bothered because I can't figure out who, what, where, why I am at all It's not I haven't tried, I just never get a call Back, all that I ask is for some kinda raw chat Before I go disaster, disaster - Every little thing just gets to me Every once in a while Every little thing just gets to me Every now and then Every little thing just gets to me Every once in a while Every little thing just gets to me - Maybe I'm just looking for the answers that never seem to exist Everything is always backwards and I'm caught up in the mix If I could understand and accept the way that it is Then maybe I could make a fist and get a fuckin grip What do I believe? What's the point of anything if everything is vanilla I sit and sleep in the middle, I grit my teeth and I riddle Hit these beats and I kill em, got the heart of a lion but my guts I never spill em I'm just caught up in the moment, always walkin on the road that's Growin over, slower goins my MO and roamin Til I figure it out, what it could all be about I guess I'll let you know whenever I get to wherever's found To wherever's found - Every little thing just gets to me Every once in a while Every little thing just gets to me Every now and then Every little thing just gets to me Every once in a while Every little thing just gets to me Just gets to me Just gets to me every now and then Every little thing just gets to me Just gets to me -

She feelin' good, she feelin' bad I can't help with no jibber jab In bitter there's no glitter And all the wishful thinking's at a simmer Inner critic boils over Spins her cynic, soiled hoper Hits her, rips her, trips her and clips her wings a little closer To the bone, to the dome, to the home and oh no When alone, with a tome and a phone, she go low She slow mode and nose dove, the old road No hope and cold tones are so mold It's all grey, yea all day, and stall play The crawl way is only til fall, lay And I don't blame her for never wanting to move again Cause these days don't be safe, it's all death And there's a lack of precision in almost everything So coming up with decisions, it's like you're pullin fangs And doing things is new and strange and out of range But it's only temporary, keep a steady aim [ Everything's not beautiful right now But I'm thinking that it might be Yea I'm thinking that it might be soon Everything's not perfect right now But I'm thinking that it might be Yea I'm thinking that it might be soon [ She feelin' good, she feelin' bad I'm tryna help with the jibber jab In bitter there's a glimmer So I lift her with a bit of somethin realer A steady rhythm of the heartbeat It marks the spark, see? Not everything is dark, please Darling, you're starting and marching The dark brings some hard things, but mark the Many syllables that I can formulate to help you figure it out Cause sicker for now is only diggin' you down Today Delayed but maybe escape's attained through Pain and rain can wash away the haze And make a better picture that could give you some hope [ Everything's not beautiful right now But I'm thinking that it might be Yea I'm thinking that it might be soon Everything's not perfect right now But I'm thinking that it might be Yea I'm thinking that it might be soon [instrumental] Everything's not beautiful right now But I'm thinking that it might be Yea I'm thinking that it might be soon Everything's not perfect right now But I'm thinking that it might be Yea I'm thinking that it might be soon [

Spinning wheels while standing still Not a damn thing is feeling real This medicine's not helping heal The burning in my chest A bitter deal, a bit of real No doubt it's kills, the sound is still Ringing in my head and there is almost nothin left Where'd you go away without me How'd you run so fast, I doubt the Feet below my legs could carry all the weight upon these Shoulders, it's so heavy I can barely stand up straight and drown the demons flying out my mouth piece How's about we calm it down a second And breathe for a bit Seethe in the pit Be in the moment It's all in slow motion - no seeds in the bed Down the hallway and all day the droning hum's never dead So I'm Counting stars in the daytime Counting bars when I make rhymes I'm always tryna walk in a straight line Bendin' at the pressure, always waiting for a break time Sleep on through the daylight This the way I stay fine [ And around and around and around we go And down we go This the way I stay fine And down and down and down we go And around we go This the way I stay fine ] Grinding gears, but pushing on The timing's off, and always wrong Something's in the water I can taste it when I'm up at dawn There's that colder breeze the summer's never carry Shaking all the windows, cold and frigid, keeps me wary Eyes up to the heavens, tryna figure where you are But it's even darker out tonight so I cannot see the stars There's a pounding in my chest that's itching to escape The blood under my nails doesn't match the look upon my face And I feel you slip away And I feel you less today I don't feel you in the same way Like all those years ago back when I was a kid Now I'm talking to myself like why's it always crash like this But there's no reason is there It's just a series of events unfortunate That lead us from moment to moment til it ends And then something else begins Like innocence that too collapses into the spin [ And around and around and around we go And down we go Into the spin And down and down and down we go And around we go Into the spin ] Interference in the blood, a little noise inside the veins Turnin' rabbit ears to get a better picture in the brain Like how's it half the time everything just hurts Turn the dial, spin it quick, where's the channel that works? Come on, now, how's about we tone it down a bit I'm about to blow my spout with clouding doubts developin' This sunshine's too hot and the night's too long and dark God, tell me where's the metaphor cause I need this to stop Don't let it get you Don't let it tempt you Cause they will never know what's best for you And I swear it isn't even like they know you anyway Wearing wool and only lookin for something somewhere to save Their only purpose is to drag you to their circus With the madness, their rashness, and your circuits Are their target, they wire you up so right and proper Hop you up on that empty serotonin until they got you [ And around and around and around we go And down we go Until they got you And down and down and down we go And around we go Until they got you ]
