[Intro – Soft Vocals / Ambient]
Maybe I’ve been wasting time…
Hazy nights, but I’m still alive
Come take a dive inside my head
⸻
[Chorus]
Maybe I’ve been wasting time
My state of mind been hazy, but I stay alive
Come take a dive inside my head
Feeling down but never out, I’m hanging by a thread
I wake up lost, but not yet dead
Yeah, I’m hanging by a thread
Down bad, still holding breath
Yeah, I’m hanging by a thread
⸻
[Verse 1]
My life feel like an empty tub of ice cream
Never what I pictured when I was sixteen
Every morning wake up full of aspiration
By the time I fall asleep, it’s disintegrating
Who I wanna be is always rearranging
Motivation fragile, never really staying
I pace the room, don’t know what I’m chasing
Asking if the dreams I want are worth the racing
Pressure on my spine, hope it don’t crack
Foundation shaky, might need a new map
Maybe it’s time I change my location
Same damn thoughts, different rotation
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
So I waste a couple hours here
And a couple more right there
Been doing this for years
Feeling like nobody cares
But I’m still here, still breathing
Even when it’s hard to see it
⸻
[Chorus]
Maybe I’ve been wasting time
My state of mind been hazy, but I stay alive
Come take a dive inside my head
Feeling down but never out, I’m hanging by a thread
3AM, wide awake again
Can’t escape the place I’ve been
Down bad, still holding breath
Yeah, I’m hanging by a thread
⸻
[Verse 2]
Damn, what is wrong with me?
I’m stuck inside my head, can’t fall asleep
Too tired to move, too bored to dream
Wasted too much just waiting to be
Friends say I’m gifted, family proud
But I’m stuck in the silence between too loud
Fear got a grip when I try to create
Scared they’ll trample everything I make
Life ain’t inflation, time don’t grow
Every day spent is a day I owe
Highs and lows, yeah, they come and go
So I buckle up, try taking it slow
⸻
[Bridge – Melodic / Half-Sung]
I got a problem with myself, yeah, I know
But I bet I’ll be better tomorrow
Done letting the sorrow decide
I’m still here, so I guess I’ll try
⸻
[Final Chorus / Outro]
Maybe I’ve been wasting time
But I’m still alive, so I’ll be fine
Come take a dive inside my head
Feeling down but never out, I’m hanging by a thread
Yeah, I’m hanging by a thread
But I ain’t letting go just yet
