Parking Lot

[Verse 1] 3 floors high in the parking lot Can you even see me at all Empty spaces Flickering signs I scroll the ceiling Pretend I’m fine No one beside me Open seat No one here to tell me “breathe” View past the rail Beyond this line All those windows full of other lives [Pre-Chorus] These buildings standing tall While my building’s breaking down inside I hold my breath and count the cracks Like that could turn back time [Chorus] Will it ever get easier being me Will I ever get to be free I stand tall but I feel so small Afraid of the world and the weight of it all Is there any hope left here for me I’m trying to stay at peace Just to breathe All these thoughts running laps in my mind I’m stuck in between the dark and the light [Verse 2] Phone on 1% Can’t call home Half a tank and a heart half-broke I focus on the worst Then the best Both of them pressing on my chest I see the skyline Burning gold I see my future Blurred and cold I talk to the air like it talks back Ask it quietly “am I off track?” [Pre-Chorus] These towers scrape the sky While I scrape pieces off the floor If there’s a door out of this night I haven’t found it yet I’m searching for more [Chorus] [Bridge] Can I be saved if I can’t save myself If I doubt every hand that tries to help [low vocal register] If I’m the storm and I’m the sea Who’s gonna hold this tide in me [crescendo] One breath in One fear out Name each worry Let it drown Maybe hope’s not loud Not bright Maybe it’s staying here Staying alive tonight [Chorus]
