Introduction 02:27
I've been dreaming I've been lost I've been drifting I've been holding on I've seen the world burn I've seen it die I've seen it go to waste And I have seen my own lies And I'm drowning in self indulgence Drowning in my own shame No, it's never It’s never easy No, it’s never In any way
2.
Put your arms around me And hold me tight Begging you won't see These tears haven't dried Lay your hands on my shoulders And look into my eyes I said I couldn't sleep last night You asked me if I was alright So I lied I can feel the rock in my chest burst Into a thousand pieces But the emptiness left Feels like the weight of the world Lay your hands on my shoulders And look into my eyes I said I couldn't sleep last night You asked me if I was alright So I lied

Sometimes I think I can trust you Sometimes I just don’t I can’t get these words out of my head Can’t get them out just yet But it’s all in my mind There’s no one else to blame I can’t seem to make it right And it’s driving me insane This place in my mind is like a chamber With a locked door and no key I try to break through it Try to break it down But it’s made out of steel It’s got a golden door handle And its colour is blue Blue ‘cause I got thoughts, dreams and words but I can’t get them out for you But it’s all in my mind There’s no one else to blame I can’t seem to make it right And it’s driving me insane I can’t let go But I can’t hold on for infinity If I don’t let go I know I will never be free These words in my mind I can’t get them out No matter if I’m screaming No matter how loud But it’s all in my mind There’s no one else to blame I can’t seem to make it right And it’s driving me insane

I'll Be Fine 02:57
Don't make this harder for me I've always been bad at goodbyes Don't you cry for me I've already cried a million times I've tried to make sense of it all But it doesn't No, it doesn't I've really tried to carry on But I can't No, I can't so Please let me go I don't want to fight anymore Please let me go I don't belong here anymore Don't you worry for me I'll be fine where I'm going Where I'm going Don't you worry for me I'll be fine where I'm going Where I'm going I'll be fine

You call me up at 4 am Say tell me baby how have you been It’s been a while And I miss your smile And all the little things you do I know I messed up I know I did you wrong But hear me out Hear me out ‘cause I got something to tell you now He said it’s been a while And I hope you’re fine ‘cause you’re on my mind Day and night He said it’s been a while And I hope you’re fine ‘cause you’re on my mind Day and night So I listen to you talking ‘bout a future Listen to you talking ‘bout whatever suits you Making plans for the both of us I don’t agree with but We both know those are probably just a myth But I can’t hide I miss my boo I can’t hide I miss you too So I’ll follow you wherever you go ‘cause you’re on my mind I’ll follow you, you know He said it’s been a while And I hope you’re fine ‘cause you’re on my mind Day and night He said it’s been a while Been a while, been a while And I hope you’re fine ‘Cause you’re on my mind On my mind, on my mind Day and night Day and night Say you’ll chase me till the end of time And that in the end you will be mine Say you’ll chase me till the end of time And that in the end you will be mine Say you’ll chase me till the end of time And that in the end you will be mine Say you’ll chase me till the end of time And that in the end you will be mine
