This song features Vera vocalist Adrian Jung

lyrics

I've been dreaming with my eyes open in hope to find that someday I won't flirt with sadness, anymore, placing my hands against the door.
I mutter to myself if nothings as it seems,
Why can't I get to sleep?
The distorted noise, reminds me I'm alone.
& I'm afraid of confessing it, but I've never vented, I can't help it,
I wake up exhausted & taunted, by the memories that keep haunting me.

I want my life back.

Everytime I seem to find some rest, the anxiousness becomes so painless, as if to feel I am on my deathbed,
Still restless but no yet buried,
Grasping my nails into my sheets, I scream,
& for no reason, I'll start to weep,

I'll leave myself behind, for old bones,
Gathering the broken to bring to a new,
To carry my heart alone,
Yet I still feel so isolated,
I don't know why, I keep spending nights in the cold
& I'm running out of whiskey, to keep the warmth,

It's a subtle reminder, that my knuckles are cold,
What I knew is barely shattered glass anymore,
Different remakes of glass along the wall,
Each shard representing who I was,
What you used to be,
What we used to be,
I can't walk away, so please don't walk away from me,


& I'll turn my head, around,
Only to forget, your "umbrella" can't stop this from,
What it meant to me, when the distorted light, blurs the image.
As soon as my eyes, met the back of your head.

"I'm fighting, I swear I'm fucking fighting man,
Fighting for my life
I'm throwing punches at these nights,
These nights I lie awake, fight for sleep,
Hope I'm not drinking again,
Fighting these words on this page,
Hope I never have to see them again,
I don't know where this will take us both, or the letters to form the words.
The words that keep breaking me apart,
From the words that we spoke,
I will learn from this" - Adrian ~ Vera

I'm scared of death.
I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to fucking fade

I'm so fucking scared, of what's here today
I don't want to feel the way that we felt when we did last at the tracks,
I'm lifting my head, trying to find some confidence & willingness
I know I'm just a desperate soul, trying to grasp onto your head.
I know we're all trying to fucking fight it,

There's nothing left, there's no more confidence, so give it up, you're fucking useless,
You left me on me deathbed
I've got nothing left,
I just want my life back
There's nothing to be said

We're all desperate souls,
We're all miserable
We're all desperate souls
& I'm miserable.
