Fevers worsen,
pavements blurry Can't cool off,
I'm getting weary
Nothing's safer on the surface Burn my skin,
I'm getting nervous
Blinking lights,
the walls are closing Hands gone numb,
I'm scared it's showing
Skin too tight,
my body itches Holding on until it hits you
Take it slow,
a heavy load It's lighter in the river
There's a flow that water knows Just wait until it's given
Lately I've been breathing heavy
This water pressure's gonna crush me Till I overflow,
flow with the stream
Let it hold me
above the water Growing up is overwhelming
And I can't stop this flood on my own This flood on my own
Stars inside, I tried to weather
Pieces don't quite fit together
Dreading thoughts I used to bury Should've sunk instead,
I carry
Take it slow,
a heavy load It's lighter in the river
This water
pressure's gonna
crush me Till I overflow,
flow with the stream
Let it hold me above the water Growing up is overwhelming
And I can't stop this flood on my own
Flood on my own I didn't mean it to come out the way it did
But I can't pretend that this is not the way I'm feeling
You know it's hard for me to open up about it to you,
you
I can't be giving something I don't wanna get
Not an apology,
cause sometimes things have gotta be shared
Said a lot of * so don't make me regret this
Opening up to you,
the earth
This flood on my own This flood on my own
