I stand just in the dark
And so is my heart
The weight of the world has covered me
I'm in over my head
Am I living or dead?
Can anyone hear me calling out
I'm calling out
Finally breaking, so where are you now?
It's been such a long time
And I tried to live without, I'm suffocating
Need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up, pull me up
Before I am buried beneath
I built this house on the shore
All I wanted was more
And I felt the sands start shifting
Saw the cracks in the walls
I painted over them all
I tried my best to just ignore
I can't ignore
Finally breaking, so where are you now?
It's been such a long time
And I tried to live without, I'm suffocating
Need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up, pull me up
Before I am buried beneath
Thought I was climbing up
But it's dragging me down
What's sitting here with me
Thought I was alone
But it pulls me deeper
Now I can't escape
Finally breaking, so where are you now?
It's been such a long time
And I tried to live without, I'm suffocating
Need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up, pull me up
Before I am buried beneath
