Brain on Pause (Lost and High)

Verse 1

Lost my job, now I’m lying here,

Fueling rage, but the path ain’t clear.

I want my brain to shut off, just let me go,

But why am I still here? I don’t even know.

Chorus

Why am I still here?

When all I want’s to disappear.

High to numb the fight inside,

Lost in smoke, nowhere to hide.

Verse 2

Thoughts keep spinning like a broken reel,

Can’t find the switch, can’t find the feel.

Lying still but my mind’s on fire,

Burning up with every desire.

Chorus

Why am I still here?

When all I want’s to disappear.

High to numb the fight inside,

Lost in smoke, nowhere to hide.

Bridge

Can’t shut it down, it’s on repeat,

Every thought a drum, a beat.

Searching for silence, but it won’t come,

Just another night, feeling numb.

Outro (soft & fading)

I want my brain to shut off,

But why am I still here?
