Whenever I try it feels like, the day is burning away 

Peeling back my skin wanting to give in 

Wanting to take this road straight back to nowhere again


Did you ever know I waited my whole life 

Will you help my burn these street signs? 

Waiting for a sunny Summer day 


Did you ever know I held it all inside 

It's pointless acting like you could understand 

I'm doing the best I can to not give in 


On this midwest island is a shipwreck 

Where the walls have closed us in 

Feeling like I can't wait to drive away from here 


I feel like choking hands (of fear)

As they grab my neck (im scared)

But I'm not prepared to give up everything 

You're taking my breath from me

You're asking too much from me
