Lyrics
Verse 1
Pills on the nightstand staring back at me
Counting every second till I finally feel free
Doctor said I'm fine but I don't trust the sound
Every time I close my eyes I'm six feet underground
Wrote a letter then I tore it up again
Nobody would get it so I'm keeping it within
Momma's on the phone saying check in on me
I say I'm doing fine while I'm staring at the sea
Pre-Chorus
And I don't wanna be here anymore
But I don't wanna hurt the ones who care
Trapped between the door and the floor
Wonder if they'd notice if I disappeared
Chorus
Overdose on everything I feel
Let the darkness make the pain go still
If I'm gonna sink then let me drown
Take this hollow heart and burn it down
Overdose on everything I feel
Let the darkness make the pain go still
If I'm gonna sink then let me drown
Take this hollow heart and burn it down
Verse 2
Razor thoughts they cut me deeper than the blade
Every single morning I'm a ghost that never fades
Wrote my name in dust on a windowsill
Left a message that I never had the will
I keep a smile painted on my face
Nobody sees the scars behind the space
They say it gets better but it only gets worse
Every single day I'm writing my own hearse
Pre-Chorus
And I don't wanna be here anymore
But I don't wanna hurt the ones who care
Trapped between the door and the floor
Wonder if they'd notice if I disappeared
Chorus
Overdose on everything I feel
Let the darkness make the pain go still
If I'm gonna sink then let me drown
Take this hollow heart and burn it down
Overdose on everything I feel
Let the darkness make the pain go still
If I'm gonna sink then let me drown
Take this hollow heart and burn it down
Bridge
(Please stay) I can hear the voice inside my head
(Please stay) part of me still fighting what I said
(Please stay) one more day one more breath
(Please stay) maybe there's a reason I'm not dead
Verse 3
Midnight creeping down my hallway again
Swear I feel the pull of where the silence ends
Wrote a playlist for the ones I'd leave behind
Every track a piece of what I couldn't find
Got a box of reasons buried in my room
Letters I wrote on the days I felt immune
Maybe someday somebody flips through them all
Sees the cracks behind the castle wall
Pre-Chorus
And I don't wanna be here anymore
But I don't wanna hurt the ones who care
Trapped between the door and the floor
Wonder if they'd notice if I disappeared
Chorus
Overdose on everything I feel
Let the darkness make the pain go still
If I'm gonna sink then let me drown
Take this hollow heart and burn it down
Overdose on everything I feel
Let the darkness make the pain go still
If I'm gonna sink then let me drown
Take this hollow heart and burn it down
