Longing

There is an echo that is building in my head
Feeding back in time are words that were never meant to rhyme
I’ve seen the evidence
The canvas drips with loneliness
It’s haunting, but it draws me in
I long for light to fill my heart
I am desperate but feel
Like if I can survive tonight then I’ll learn to start
To want to live and heal
Pick me up, pull me in
I just want to feel again
It’s a chemical imbalance, yes I know
It doesn’t make it hurt less though, it’s paradoxical
With each breath I feel more alone
I long for light to fill my heart
I am desperate but feel
Like if I can survive tonight then I’ll learn to start
To want to to live and heal
Can I begin again, I’ve wanted to believe in a different end
But there are days when I can’t even find the strength to get up
Can I begin again, I’ve felt like this ever since I was a kid
Trust me I know that it is all in my head, but it still feels fucked
All these thoughts I can’t make sense of
Can I begin again, I wish I had your confidence
But there are days when I can’t even find the strength to get up
