[Verse 1]
In the beginning, it was worth this
Do the worst, feel complete
Passing standards others meet
Now perfect endings make you anxious
A heavy head, a colder sweat
Leaving nothing here, nothing to regret

[Chorus]
Why am I still suffocated?
I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive
Why am I still suffocated?
I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive

[Verse 2]
I miss the old days that we murdered
They're so far gone, we're out of reach
Watch 'em fade with summer's heat (Well, it goes like this)
Without a break from this distraction
I need a change, a different scene (A new approach to coming clean)

[Chorus]
Why am I still suffocated?
I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive
Why am I still suffocated?
I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive
[Bridge]
(Still searching for a back door out of here
Reassured that my friends will reappear)
Why am I still suffocated?
Hold your breathe deep and I'll keep waiting
(Still searching for a back door out of here
Reassured that my friends will reappear)
Why am I still suffocated?
Well, hold your breath deep and I'll keep waiting, waiting

[Chorus]
Why am I still suffocated?
I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive
Why am I still suffocated?
I'm constantly devastated just to stay alive (Whoa-whoa)
