ashes & Oath - Sick of It

Verse 1

Blank stares from faces I thought I knew

Cracked phone screen, what did I lose?

My reflection’s tired, my voice worn thin

Counting losses, soaked in sin

Pre-Chorus

Does it matter if I care?

Last year’s hope, just hanging there

All that’s left, I try to hide

Swallow pride, just stay inside

Chorus

I'm sinking, always holding in

Broken glass under my skin

Can you hear me, or is it all pretend?

Tear me out and start again

Post-Chorus

Oh—oh, oh—oh

Oh—oh, oh—oh, oh

Verse 2

Shouting at the walls, but nobody sees

Bite my tongue, fall apart with ease

Still chasing answers that never fit

This empty home, I'm sick of it

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I'm the one to blame

Cold reminders in my name

Try to smile, but I just choke

Yeah, I laugh, but that's a joke

Chorus

I'm sinking, always holding in

Broken glass under my skin

Can you hear me, or is it all pretend?

Tear me out and start again

Post-Chorus

Oh—oh, oh—oh

Oh—oh, oh—oh, oh

Bridge

Cigarette ash on the window ledge

Questions burn, I can’t catch my breath

Running from the words I never said

Another night alone in my head

Chorus

I'm sinking, always holding in

Broken glass under my skin

Can you hear me, or is it all pretend?

Tear me out and start again

Post-Chorus

Oh—oh, oh—oh

Oh—oh, oh—oh, oh
