[Intro Hook] there's a sadness living under my tongue and it never lets me rest [Verse 1] it tells me i am hard to love too strange to keep and every crowded room becomes a courtroom in my mind where everyone decides i'm less without saying it outright i laugh too loud just to fill the space smile too wide just to get through the day but august bleeds blue through my window and i can't quiet what it says [Pre-Chorus] you move through the world like music while i move through it misread and i don't know how to explain the weight of living in my head [Chorus] august bleeds blue through my window and i can't quiet my head i'm carrying something i can't name and it follows me to bed you move through the world like music while i move through it wrong i've been trying to belong somewhere my whole life long [Verse 2] i wonder what they say about me when i walk out of the room do they call me awkward strange or forgettable too i used to search for my reflection in the way that people smiled but every face that turned away felt like a verdict on my life [Pre-Chorus] you move through the world like music while i move through it misread and i don't know how to explain the weight of living in my head [Chorus] august bleeds blue through my window and i can't quiet my head i'm carrying something i can't name and it follows me to bed you move through the world like music while i move through it wrong i've been trying to belong somewhere my whole life long [Bridge] i am so tired of carrying this like something borrowed like something nobody claimed i just want to set it down somewhere and finally learn my own name if i could see myself the way you do would i finally survive me or would i find the same old stranger staring back just like before [Final Chorus] august bleeds blue through my window but maybe that's okay tonight i'm carrying something i can't name and maybe that's alright you move through the world like music i'm still learning how to move i've been trying to belong somewhere and maybe i'm almost through [Outro] august bleeds blue august bleeds blue i'm still here in the quiet slowly finding my way through
