[Verse 1] The colors all faded, the world turned to gray Each morning's a battle, just to face the new day A heavy, dull ache settles deep in my chest Just wanting to vanish, to just get some rest [Pre-Chorus] I count every ceiling crack Waiting for the weight to pass [Chorus] This shadow it follows, it whispers and bites Stealing my sunshine, dimming all of my lights I'm walking through quicksand, with weights on my feet Just want to feel something, anything I wanna feel something that isn't bittersweet [Verse 2] My smile feels like glue, stuck on for the show Pretending I'm fine, so nobody will know The thoughts in my head, they just circle and spin A silent exhaustion from deep down within But I can't trust anyone, I keep that locked inside [Chorus] This shadow it follows, it whispers and bites Stealing my sunshine, dimming all of my lights I'm walking through quicksand, with weights on my feet Just want to feel something, anything I wanna feel something that isn't bittersweet [Bridge] If I say I'm tired, will you stay for a while? If the mask slips loose, will you look past the smile? I don't need a rescue, I need somewhere to land A quiet room, an open door, a steady hand [Final Chorus] This shadow still follows, but I open my eyes A thin thread of morning is cutting the night My feet are still heavy, my heart still feels weak But I want to feel something, anything I wanna feel something that isn't bittersweet [Outro] Not fixed, not finished, but breathing again One small honest moment, then one after then
