It feels like I'm sinkin' But it's goin' too slow I must be dreamin' How am I supposed to know? I don't trust my senses Everything's corrupt I feel defenseless Like the pain ain't enough to wake you up I wanna fall asleep But I'm afraid of death If sent a message to my younger self It was just two words said, "Savior breath" And if we're gonna be honest I don't even know which way the mountain top is I might be alive and conscious It don't mean I'm cognizant of what I'm tryin' to accomplish I jumped through hoops of fire Just to get a couple new subscribers I been around the world, didn't lose my lighter But my arms are tired, but I'm still inspired I feel incomplete But every day's a new leaf I wanna escape from between your teeth And all I can see are the things I can't reach I've had it up to here But there ain't now where to hide from the puppeteer Exhale till my lungs are clear And underneath the surface, I disappear Gravity, that's your enemy You get to fly temporarily But we all gotta bend the knee eventually Cut me off and let me bleed into the- I gotta go, I gotta go Already know I gotta get away from ya Could somebody please throw me a rope? I'd rather hang above ya It's like the more I fight it The faster I sink in the trap I wanna reach the sky You keep on suckin' me back and back into the- Don't you have anything better to do?
