Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Yeah

Verse 1

Woke up at noon to a quiet phone

Nobody calling nobody home

I trace the cracks in the ceiling paint

Wonder if I'm the one who's fading

So I scroll until my thumbs go numb

Tell myself tomorrow I'll become

Something that a mirror recognizes

Pre-Chorus

I don't know who I'm supposed to be

I don't know who I'm supposed to be

Everybody's got a plan but me

Chorus

I'm just trying to breathe

I'm just trying to breathe

Under all this quiet weight I keep

Maybe I don't need to know

Maybe I don't need to know

Where I'm headed just to take it slow

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Slow

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Verse 2

My friends are moving on and out

They post the jobs the kids the house

I like their photos then I lock my screen

Sit inside the space between

What I want and what I'm brave enough to chase

Two different maps for the same face

One says go the other says stay

Pre-Chorus

I don't know who I'm supposed to be

I don't know who I'm supposed to be

Everybody's got a plan but me

Chorus

I'm just trying to breathe

I'm just trying to breathe

Under all this quiet weight I keep

Maybe I don't need to know

Maybe I don't need to know

Where I'm headed just to take it slow

Bridge

Started small in a bedroom wall

Started small in a bedroom wall

Every little doubt I ever had

Every little doubt I ever had

Turns to something softer when I let it pass

Chorus

I'm just trying to breathe

I'm just trying to breathe

Under all this quiet weight I keep

Maybe I don't need to know

Maybe I don't need to know

Where I'm headed just to take it slow

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Slow

Mm

Mm-hmm
