This is so hard for me to grow up
Cause no one told us that life wouldn't get easy
And nothing like what we dreamed about when we were kids
When it all seemed so simple, running up on the hill
We'll play pretend we have minds so pure
But now we just spin in circles around what we thought we could be
And there's no one to show us the way or really
There's nothing, my guess is just trying to breathe
Take my soul back
I'm breathing

I'm breathing
Slowly
Paranoid stuck inside this void
Wish that I could speak
But I lose my voice
Forced to think too much
Can't throw out these cuffs
My reality is so far from yours
All this * is hollowing
Constantly keeps on following me
Counting all the policies
Say this is what you want it to be
Oh, you left me for dead
No, I'm not the same
Knowing that all I had
Wasn't meant to come through
Wasn't needed by you
Paranoid about it all
Am I even ready for all this bullshit?
I am not sure
Shouting out I'm not enough
Overthinking is the * I do
Give me time, I'm so confused
People telling me I'm not strong enough



I grew well, I just won't go back to you
To you
Thinking about times that our minds and the sky lost our hopes
Out of sight cause we close up our eyes
Yeah, given up
We have seen enough
Yeah, yeah
Take my soul back
Yeah, yeah
I'm breathing slowly
Paranoid stuck inside this void
Wish that I could speak
But I lose my voice
Forced to think too much
Can't throw up these cuffs
My reality is so far from yours
All this * is hollowing
Constantly keeps on following me
Counting all the policies
Say this is what you want it to be
All you left me for dead
Knowing that all ahead
Wasn't meant to come through
Wasn't needed but you
