Lyrics

I heard her tears breaking me down last night
I saw her whole world in flames that night
And I don't know how to be strong
It's hard to makes these things alright
I just wanna turn and say goodbye
But I don't know if it's right

Because my heart is in a place I can't interfere
And all the things I have control of never meet me

Here we are when all the world is down
I'm sick, I'm empty, I'm angry now
And all I got is what you give
To keep me here and help me live
I'm not myself right now
I'm not myself right now

I try to put words to these thoughts inside
I try to keep still, and I try to get by
But I don't know how to survive
These nights hold too many secrets
And the dawn holds too many lies
But I don't know how to get by

My heart is covered and I'm pushing everyone that's here for me
I'm so frail And all I need is a sign, that says you're

Here we are when all the world is down
I'm sick, I'm empty, I'm angry now
And all I got is what you give
To keep me here and help me live
I'm not myself right now
I'm not myself right now
