Lyric

Hide me behind your eyelids

Until the light breaks through

How do I live with this warped self

Even though you try to save me

I can’t ask you to carry this

Your passing laughter was enough to keep me standing

Still, I can’t bring myself to see you

If I could

I’d still stand before you smiling

Hoping to make you laugh

Calling nothing

I just can’t stand the ugliness born inside me

Somehow, every road inside my head

Collapses into grief

No matter what I carve away from myself

Grief is still the answer

Let this forever fall into a blink

How many times have I wished

To wake as someone else

Just for a day?

I know this won’t disappear

This suffocation stretches endlessly

Let it be shorter

Let it be small enough to hide in your blink

Throw me away to fade into nothing

Gravity grinds me down

As my eyes fall shut

Leave me asleep a little longer

I keep struggling

(Just for now)

Hide me behind your eyelids

Only grief is still my answer

Escaping into darkness is my decision

I choke on your brightness

I refuse to see this as a sickness

Conceal them all

I keep struggling

All I ask is for you to blink

Just blink for me
