alone in a room

i've been away

a little while

sometimes i just can't help myself

when my mind's running wild

i seem to lose grip on reality

and i try to disregard the crazy things

the voices tell me to do but it's no use

i tried to own it

write songs about it

believe me

i tried

in the end i needed to breathe

find inspiration

some kind of purpose

to take a second to face the shit that makes me me

all i needed was the last thing i wanted

to sit alone in a room and say it all out loud

every moment

every second

every trespass

every awful thing

every broken dream

a couple years back and forth with myself in a cage

banging my head against the wall

tryna put words on a page

all i needed was the last thing i wanted

to be alone in a room

alone in a room

i saw the world a couple times

tried to cure the ache with absence

but that hole was still a hole

and my mind kept playing tricks on me

feeling older every day

took everything i had to not crash and burn

but i'm starting to learn

sometimes i'll fall down

sometimes i'll lose hope

but those days will be few if i keep my feet on the ground

i might be lonely but i ain't alone here

so i keep pushing the limits of what makes me me

all i needed was the last thing i wanted

to sit alone in a room and say it all out loud

every moment

every second

every trespass

every awful thing

every broken dream

a couple years back and forth with myself in a cage

banging my head against the wall

tryna put words on a page

all i needed was the last thing i wanted

to be alone in a room

alone in a room

i can be better than i was

i can be better than i am

all i needed was the last thing i wanted

to sit alone in a room

all i needed was the last thing i wanted

to sit alone in a room and say it all out loud

every moment

every second

every trespass

every awful thing

every broken dream

a couple years back and forth with myself in a cage

banging my head against the wall

tryna put words on a page

all i needed was the last thing i wanted

to be alone in a room

alone in a room
