[Verse 1] Wake up with a war in my head Can’t outrun the things that I’ve said Mirror shows a face I barely know Carrying a weight I never chose Everyone's got something to say But they don't see the price I pay Smiling while I break inside Trying not to let it show tonight [Pre-Chorus] And I scream into silence Drown in the quiet Fighting for a breath that feels like mine [Chorus] I just want peace, I just want light Tired of losing sleep every night Feels like the whole world’s closing in But I still dream of what life could’ve been Don’t need the crown, don’t want the fight All I ever wanted was to feel alright Let me lay down these heavy dreams God, I just want peace [Verse 2] Tired of the voices in my mind Telling me I’m always behind Like I’m running a race I can’t win While the storm keeps pouring in Friends turn into strangers so fast Guess some things just never last But I keep pretending I’m okay While I slowly fade away [Pre-Chorus] And I scream into silence Drown in the quiet Hoping for a hand to pull me out [Chorus] I just want peace, I just want light Tired of losing sleep every night Feels like the whole world’s closing in But I still dream of what life could’ve been Don’t need the crown, don’t want the fight All I ever wanted was to feel alright Let me lay down these heavy dreams God, I just want peace [Bridge] Maybe someday, I’ll find a place Where the hurt can’t find my face Where love is louder than the pain And I don’t have to act okay [Final Chorus] I just want peace, I just want light To hold my heart and hold it tight Even if the world keeps pushing me I won’t let it take what’s left of me Don’t need the crown, don’t want the fight Just wanna feel like I’m alive Let me lay down these heavy dreams Please… I just want peace
