[Verse 1] I dug this hole with my own hands Thought I was building, it turned to sand Kept every lie like a pocket knife Now it sits in my ribs at night I told myself I could handle the weight Smile on my face, rot in the gate Every bad choice got a name and a date Now they all line up and wait [Pre-Chorus] I hear my breath in the dirt below I hear my name but it moves too slow I reach for daylight, it slips away I’m still here, but I don’t know how to stay [Chorus] I’m in my own grave I’m in my own grave Can you hear me? Can you pull me out? I’m in my own grave I’m in my own grave I made this mess Now I scream it out [Verse 2] I keep the keys, but the door won’t turn Hands full of shame and a head full of burns Every “tomorrow” comes dressed like pain Same broken road, same bone-deep rain I watch my shadow lean on the wall Looks like a man who forgot how to fall Looks like a ghost with my face on it Begging for one clean breath, one hit [Pre-Chorus] If I climb up, will it hold my name? If I walk out, will I stay the same? I need a voice that won’t let go I need a hand in the undertow [Chorus] I’m in my own grave I’m in my own grave Can you hear me? Can you pull me out? I’m in my own grave I’m in my own grave I made this mess Now I scream it out [Bridge] Maybe I don’t need to be erased Maybe the dirt ain’t the end of my face If I break right here, if I crack wide open Maybe something real gets chosen I been my own lock I been my own chain I been the one with the shovel I been the one with the shame [Final Chorus] I’m in my own grave I’m in my own grave Can you hear me? Can you pull me out? I’m in my own grave I’m in my own grave I made this mess But I’m clawing out
