Why is everything I miss behind me?
People that I love, the place I grew up
Pressure fuelling me is blinding
Pain is all I know and it’s taken control

Keep pushing forward though I'm barely afloat
In the end I know I’ll find where I belong
Drinking poison to forget everyone
A million people in this city alone

The moon can't put me to sleep
Time can't catch up to me
You thought I was breaking away
But I'm staying for me

Is this mirror really broken am I barely alive?
So focused on the past no matter how hard I try
Flew across the oceans I knew what I’d do
Trying for me, trying for you

Keep pushing forward though I'm barely afloat
In the end I know I’ll find where I belong
Drinking poison to forget everyone
A million people in this city alone

The moon can't put me to sleep
Time can't catch up to me
You thought I was breaking away
But I'm staying for me
