[Verse 1] Staying up late again Thoughts started spiraling Fingers working overtime Pressing down some keys Words appearing on a screen To keep my head in line [Pre-chorus] I write some lyrics About how I feel I publish songs online To feel some relief [Chorus] It helps me forget About the way I feel Like a short trip to heaven A dream that's made real I'll write my feelings away To keep these shadows at bay [Verse 2] I entered a contest With a somber song People seem to like it Helps me feel like I belong It eases my mind and soul I feel a little warmer Maybe slightly less cold [Pre-chorus] I write some lyrics About how I feel I publish songs online To feel some relief [Chorus] It helps me forget About the way I feel Like a short trip to heaven A dream that's made real I'll write my feelings away To keep these shadows at bay [Bridge] It's a moment of reprieve From the way I always feel How do I stop these thoughts of mine From gnawing at me? I'll keep writing all day Maybe then I'll be okay [Chorus] It helps me forget About the way I feel Like a short trip to heaven A dream that's made real I'll write my feelings away To keep these shadows at bay
