too long
[Verse 1: thebreathingbackwards]
I've been sleeping less
Insomnia inside my chest
Waking up too early
Fucking sore, and just a bit more stressed
Kinda young, feel overgrown
Like vines outside your childhood home
Memories where I used to roam
They turn to stone where I get stoned
I'm all alone and it's rough
Someone please call my bluff
The couches I've been crashing on ain't soft no more and it sucks
'Cause, every day I get older
And my heart gets a little more colder
Holding the pain in my shoulders
But I've been exhausted
And it's getting hard to stay sober
[Pre-Chorus: thebreathingbackwards]
Growing up ain't nothing new
But it's a bitch to tell the truth
I'll try to try, I'll change my view
But I'm still barely passing through
There's passion in the things we do
In scars we hide inside tattoos
Moving on, I can't undo
But it still hurts forgetting you
[Chorus: shinigami]
It's been far too long
Since I felt your touch
You're in his arms
But I'm the one you love
It's taken me, honestly
Way too long to see, anxiety
Hope that we can, ignore the pain
While we kiss and touch, beneath the rain
[Verse 2: thebreathingbackwards]
My blankets never felt so warm and safe
Can I stay here forever?
I've been working but not getting better
Not the ties I sever
Scared of what the future holds
And stories that I never told
Anxiety keeps building up
Come save me from the hateful cold
Oh fuck, I'm drunk again
Toxins rise to unsuspend
The demons that I thought I'd never comprehend
Please make it end
I've been so exhausted in my mind
I'm wasting all my time
Everything I know, it comes to rest
And yet, I'm still alive
[Pre-Chorus: thebreathingbackwards]
Growing up ain't nothing new
But it's a bitch to tell the truth
I'll try to try, I'll change my view
But I'm still barely passing through
There's passion in the things we do
In scars we hide inside tattoos
Moving on, I can't undo
But it still hurts forgetting you
[Chorus: shinigami]
(Far too long, since I felt your touch)
You're in his arms
But I'm the one you love
It's taken me, honestly
Way too long to see, anxiety
Hope that we can, ignore the pain
While we kiss and touch, beneath the rain
Far too long
Since I felt your touch
You're in his arms
But I'm the one you love
It's taken me, honestly
Way too long to see, anxiety
Hope that we can, ignore the pain
While we kiss and touch, beneath the rain
