Leave the spider webs on the ceiling, They won't hurt me while I'm sleeping, Cuz the life that I'm leading, Already sucks me dry The riverbeds in my mind, Shrivel up and die, Lying to myself, It wasn't an escape I planned myself, I was only waiting for a, Little bit of help, No matter how hard you try, You can't break ground, The caliche's too hard, Soaking in the ground, I dig up as you dig down, Lying to myself, It wasn't an escape I planned myself, I was only waiting for a, Little bit of help, I was only waiting for a.... Little bit of help.

Your empty face Your brain cells sucked into your veins And in their place Was a legacy of pain I hurt my brain Went a little too far the other day It such as shame That you can't heal the pain Cuz all it takes Is one mistake And an apology that's fake I keep losing friends, Because they can't keep their hands to themselves I have to cut them off Or I'm no better myself The more I heard made it Harder to dismiss it Like dirty dishes Piling up all my suspicions It's what you didn't say, My doubts they didn't go away It's such as shame That you can't heal the pain Cuz all it takes Is one mistake And your apology it's fake I keep losing friends, Because they can't keep their hands to themselves I have to cut them off Or I'm no better myself

Falling On my Knees It was just a dream I was far away it seems And nothing bothered me Time passed by Far too slow Then dawn came through My window Falling in My Sleep I'm just about to hit the ground Tangled in my sheets They're slowly killing me They're just about to ring me out Falling Helplessly But you were just a dream I was far away it seems And nothing could hurt me Time passed by Far too slow Then you dragged me Down on the floor You got me Far too close Then dawn came through My window Falling in My Sleep I'm just about to hit the ground Tangled in my sheets They're slowly killing me They're just about to ring me out

It wasn't all, That I thought it would be, You said I was special but - There's no place left for me in your head, The same 4 words that I always said, In your ear, thoughts piles like the clothes by my bed And I can't stop trying just to be your friend BUT I WONT, I wont waste my time with that, I'm better than a backup plan, I'm not going back... Video calls, And counting the weeks, I said I was waiting but - Your news took me like a blow to the head, The same 4 words that you always said, On my chest, heart beating like the drums in my head, And I can't stop trying just to be your friend BUT I WONT, I wont waste my time with that, I'm better than a backup plan, I'm not going back...
