[Verse 1 – soft, emotional, conversational flow] I found God then I lost Him Somewhere in the lost and found Never really learned to trust it So I kept my head down Had a spark then it left me Grateful but I still feel empty Overthinking every second Till it’s hard to get sleep --- [Pre-Chorus – build, smoother phrasing] 'Cause I just wanna know where I go when I close my eyes (close my eyes, eyes, eyes) And I just wanna see the point of you and me in this life --- [Chorus – unchanged] I can't lie, I've been petrified Not doing alright Don't know where I go when I'm feeling low And I'm running out of time Don't you say I'm okay Save me Anemic, post-traumatic Stress of being alive --- [Verse 2 – cleaner, more emotional + rhythmic] I found love then it broke me Tried to heal but it still controls me Picked myself off the ground But it never felt like enough Every high comes and tests me Smiling while it still gets messy Tell me why I feel so blessed But still can’t feel that love --- [Pre-Chorus – slightly stronger] 'Cause I just wanna know where I go when I close my eyes (close my eyes, eyes, eyes) And I just wanna see the point of you and me in this life --- [Chorus – unchanged] I can't lie, I've been petrified Not doing alright Don't know where I go when I'm feeling low And I'm running out of time Don't you say I'm okay Save me Anemic, post-traumatic Stress of being alive (Anemic, post-traumatic) (Stress of being alive) (Anemic, post-traumatic) (Stress of being alive) --- [Bridge – shortened, tightened, still deep] [Stripped – piano + vocal, raw tone] I’m doing my best just to grow Tryna not let all this love go to waste But deep down I’m losing control Every thought keeps me stuck in this place Lying awake in my bed Thinking what happens next Who’s out there waiting for me Or is it all in my head? I wanna believe in something A God, a light, or a truth But every time that I reach for it I don’t know what to choose --- [Final Chorus – unchanged, bigger delivery] I can't lie, I've been petrified Not doing alright Don't know where I go when I'm feeling low And I'm running out of time Don't you say I'm okay Save me Anemic, post-traumatic Stress of being alive (Anemic, post-traumatic) (Stress of being alive) (Anemic, post-traumatic) (Stress of being alive) --- [Outro – soft, minimal] [Hummed vocal / light melody] (da-da-da-da…)
