Lost Cause

Don't tell me I'm hopeless

Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair

I can feel it in my bones again

Like I'm already there

Slow things down

To speed them up

Not enough

Or way too much?

I'm in my head again

My medicine

Is poison in my blood

You swear to God it's not a remedy

But you can't feel the way I feel

So I let it take control of me

And for a second I'll pretend like

Nothing else is real

Don't tell me I'm hopeless

Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair

I can feel it in my bones again

Like I'm already there

Don't tell me I'm broken

Don't tell me I'll never see the end

Fill my lungs to taste the oxygen

And pull me in

So I can breathe again

So I can breathe again

I'm coming down

I'm waking up

Just let me go

I've had enough

Venom in my skin

I'm wearing thin

Oh God, what have I done?

You swear to God it's not a remedy

But you can't feel the way I feel

So I've let it take control of me

Don't tell me I'm hopeless

Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair

I can feel it in my bones again

Like I'm already there

Don't tell me I'm broken

Don't tell me I'll never see the end

Fill my lungs to taste the oxygen

And pull me in

So I can breathe again

Nothing left here to say

You hate to see me this way

I'm sorry for the way I am

But I'm not

Strong enough to change

If I asked you to stay

Would you carry me?

Or would you leave me in the dark

And tell me

Everything's my fault

I'm a lost cause

I'm a lost cause

Don't tell me I'm hopeless

Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair

I can feel it in my bones again

Like I'm already there

Don't tell me I'm broken

Don't tell me I'll never see the end

Fill my lungs to taste the oxygen

And pull me in

So I can breathe again

So I can breathe again

So I can breathe again
