*(Verse 1)*
Back in the mindworks, I'm lost again,
Swept up, drowning in my thoughts again.
Every cell in me screams to run,
But I can’t face this pain—it weighs a ton.
*(Pre-Chorus)*
That’s when I slip out, I vanish,
A shameful exit, and I despise it.
Never meant to hurt anyone,
But I tell myself I was never enough.
*(Chorus)*
This weight is costing me too much,
I need the air in my lungs, I need to breathe.
Life’s flashing, I’m about to pass out,
I’m crashing, I can’t get free.
The walls were low, now they're high as the sky,
Try as I might, I can’t break through.
*(Verse 2)*
Of all the jokes they threw my way,
A jester played, but now he prays.
Have mercy—grant me grace,
Let me matter, let me stay.
*(Outro)*
Don’t let me fade, don’t let me go,
I need a reason, a place to grow.
Not just space that I consume,
But a life with meaning, something true.
