You know I hate to fly, because I still can't take the fall
Bury me beneath the snow, deeper and deeper
Just let me go
I hated this part of myself, long before I was told
I can't recall a day I didn't worry at all

And I'm not trying
To romanticize this pain
But it's coming like a tidal wave
I'm exhaling as the tempest takes me
You won't find mercy in me
The storm is coming sooner than you think
So don't reach out, just let me sink into myself

Just let me sink into myself
So I can feel this
I need to feel this
I'm gonna feel this
So I'll stay home and watch the rain
Looking back on better days
Keeping my head down
Don't want the world to know
That I think that I'm letting go

You know I'm much more
Of a lost soul than I care to admit
Just the shell of a man who's filled with regret

And I'm not trying
To romanticize this pain
But it's coming like a tidal wave
I'm exhaling as the tempest takes me
You won't find mercy in me
The storm is coming sooner than you think
So don't reach out, just let me sink into myself
Let me sink into myself
Maybe I could sink into the abyss of my own demise
(And come out unscathed)
I'm gonna feel this

So far this is what I have earned
For trying to understand the way this world works
So far this is what I have earned
For trying to understand the way this world works
And I'm stretched across this continent, and I'm wearing thin

And I'm not trying
To romanticize this pain
But it's coming like a tidal wave
I'm exhaling as the tempest takes me
You won't find mercy in me
The storm is coming sooner than you think
So don't reach out
Just let me sink into myself
