*This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us* (Diagnosing my depression because its gone too far) *It's time to make our move, I'm shaking off the rust* (taking my meds, getting help, trying to move forward) *I've got my heart set on anywhere but here* (Planning my future, wanting to move to PEI, planning college) *I'm staring down myself, counting up the years* ( Wanting to leave and not being able to) *Steady hands, just take the wheel...* (Hoping and begging things will get better) *And every glance is killing me* (The judgement of others pushing me down again) *Time to make one last appeal* (Forcing myself to push forward) *For the life I lead* (Forcing myself to push forward) *Stop and stare* (Me looking at my life) *I think I'm moving but I go nowhere* (Thinking im getting places when in reality ive been able to do barely anything to move my life forward ex. Not able to get a job, not getting better grades, having less friends) *Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared* (I know that a lot of people struggle through the same thing) *But I've become what I can't be, oh* (Exactly the line) *Stop and stare* (Me looking at my life) *You start to wonder why you're here not there* (I tried my best to get what I wanted but I still got no where Ex. Job hunting) *And you'd give anything to get what's fair* (I deserve so much after trying so hard) *But fair ain't what you really need* (Maybe im pushing myself too much and should take small steps but I cant help but want to see big improvments) *Oh, can you see what I see?* (exactly what it says) *They're trying to come back, all my senses push* (Depression fighting me) *Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...* (again pushing through the depression *Steady feet, don't fail me now* (Hoping I don’t fall back into depression again) *I'mma run 'til you can't walk* (Running away from my depression that’s chasing me) *Something pulls my focus out* (something gets set off triggering my depression again) *And I'm standing down...* (giving into my depression) |
