lyrics

I don't think I'm myself again
Laying in bed until 2 PM
I'm staring at the god damn ceiling again
Drinking just trying to fit back in

I know I can't go back
To how things were back then
I know someday I'll be better
and I can't help but wonder when

Come on and make amends
It's twice as hard at the deep end

I'll float away
Give myself to an early grave
I'll choose the day
There's things I've gotta say
And I'm sorry
I can't think of the right words to say
But, I'm trying
I'm trying here

Take down the picture frames
And anything else that has my name
I'm sorry I couldn't stay
But, I think things are better off this way

We move forward or we don't move at all
