Lying awake, 2am
Shutting off my mind is hell again
This way of life that I defend
Carries all through the night
As the sun creeps in my eyes
And a new day is primed to materialize
I tend to drift, to fantasize
Somewhere out of sight
Cause all I feel is heat
From stressing on repeat
My body says retreat
But I got to keep fighting
Does she see, does she care
I know she doesn't have much time to spare
And if I lay my troubles bare
Will she turn away?
Making sense of discontent
Chasing dreams that once were here but went
The way I view my world is bent
All out of shape
Cause all I feel is heat
From stressing on repeat
My body says retreat
But I got to keep fighting
I know this won't last forever
I get that I'm not alone
Burning and watching the embers
As they glow
I feel the heat
Cause all I feel is heat
From stressing on repeat
My body says retreat
But I got to keep fighting
Fighting
Cause all I feel the heat
From stressing on repeat
I wish I could retreat
But I have to keep fighting
I feel the heat
I feel the heat
My body says retreat
I have to keep fighting
Fighting
