lyrics

same talks every night
turns a year to months
but stand your ground, 'cause you know
you're right for once

right for once

there’s an ache in my chest
when I’m tryna catch my breath
but I'll do it
until I’m sick to death

people shouting in the street
like the voice inside your head
this life doesn't come cruelty-free
just go back to bed

back to bed

there’s an ache in my chest
when I’m tryna catch my breath
but I'll do it
until I’m sick to death

if you fall now
then I fell years ago
just risk it all now to find
peace at home

there’s an ache in my chest
when I’m tryna catch my breath
but I'll do it
until I’m sick to death
like a river running dry
I can’t even try anymore
'cause this drought is never ending

never ending
