lyrics

hey.

I'd hate to go on about
things that have been going south,
but lately i'm finding out
about things i've been choking down.

I've been quiet but i gotta be.
There aint much goin on for me.
I've been trying to be free,
but now i don't know how.

I've heard from different angles.
Different minds than mine.
They said it's time to come untangled,
and i see why.

But i'm scared.
Everyone i know says this ain't fair.
And when the fix is such a dare,
i've fought a lot to contemplate it.

I should go but i don't know where.
My life didn't have a spare.
What i saw always there,
admitting it's a bitch, i hate it.

Should i start over?
I'm as far as i got and now.
Only gets colder?
You won't fall if you don't look down.

hey.

I haven't seen much first hand
but there's a bit that i understand.
These things come up unplanned,
outrun it and you won't crash land.

Maybe the climb is tall,
and the world is a free for all.
You'll have a net to catch your fall.

I've heard from different angles,
what you call the other side.
They said it's time to come untangled,
And i ain't blind.

But i'm scared.
Everyone i know says this ain't fair.
And when the fix is such a dare,
i've fought a lot to contemplate it.

I should go but i don't know where.
My life didn't have a spare.
What i saw always there,
admitting it's a bitch, i hate it.

Should i start over?
I'm as far as i got and now.
Only gets colder?
You won't fall if you don't look down.

Because there's always a ways out.

No, you won't fall if you don't look down.

Can't kill a demon
just by calling it a monster.
Some perfect strangers
could give you better mantras, i know.
I know it's hard
to stomp on what you had,
but if it's that bad
uproot the ugly truth,
and take it.

Should i start over?
I'm as far as i got and now.
Only gets colder?
You won't fall if you don't look down.
(You killed a demon when you)
Because there's always a ways out
(when you saw it for a monster.)
No, you won't fall if you don't look down.
(I know you'll make it but i'll)
Because there's always a ways out.
(offer you a mantra.)
You won't fall if you don't look down.
