lyrics

I’ll sleep off the weight that’s been pulling me down today. No checks on my list and I’m full of regrets, but I can’t say I didn’t try. So tie me to a chair and let me be eaten by the wolves in my mind. I won’t break out or fight. I’ll stay right by your side so I won’t have to face the world outside alone. There’s probably light piercing through some dark, but it’s not mine. There’s probably some hope out there but I can’t find it. I’m lost inside myself, and I can’t reach out for anyone else. There’s a pain inside my chest, and I’m sinking. This is yours from me to you. A symbol of my heart and gratitude. This is ours and we made it. No matter what they say it’s all true. That I would die just to give you all the things you see in me. And I would die just to be the person you think of me. I’m lost inside myself, and I can look out for anyone else. There’s a pain inside my chest, and it’s taking me down. In this space, in this screened in porch, there’s a flicker. In this way, my eyes are drawn to the orchid. For a moment, I hear your voice as mine. And if there’s hope, I know I want to find it.
