Wearing Thin

V6

[Intro] [Verse 1] I turn out the lights And close my eyes But all of today Is still alive inside I put on a face That said I’d made it through So why does the darkness Take me back to the start? [Pre-Chorus] All the things I couldn’t hear In the daylight noise Start filling up the room When I’m here alone And all the words I buried Rise one by one [Chorus] I’m wearing thin A little more each day Walking through the hours Like nothing ever happened Somewhere between Wanting to let go And everything I cannot leave behind I keep wandering In the same old place I’m still awake I’m wearing thin A little more each day [Verse 2] Beyond my window A few late lights remain One by one they fade Into the quiet night But I’m still here At the edge of another day Turning over thoughts I never put away [Pre-Chorus] I’ve said I’m fine So many times before Maybe somewhere along the way I started believing it too But when the world goes quiet There’s nowhere left to hide [Chorus] I’m wearing thin A little more each day Getting ready for tomorrow With a smile upon my face Somewhere between Wanting to let go And everything I cannot leave behind I’ve been standing here For far too long I can’t let go So I make it through Another day somehow [Bridge] The truth is I don’t really want to break Maybe all I ever needed Was a night when I don’t have To hold the world together Just one night To put the weight away Maybe I just need some time To set down who I’ve been Without a single word [Final Chorus] But I made it through Another day somehow Can I tell myself I’m doing better now? Maybe all the things I still can’t put down Will someday feel A little lighter in my hands And maybe there’s a day I’ll be kinder to myself [Outro] Will that day Ever come for me? Tonight I’ll leave My thoughts right where they are Even if the night Hasn’t made it to the dawn I’ll be alright Even if I don’t believe it yet I’ll finally Let myself breathe Maybe tonight I’ll close my eyes [Instrumental Outro]
