i woke up wanting to go back to sleep
so i could disappear 
in the darkness of my eyelids 
wishing i could be bouncing back easily
that i could overcome all of my anxiety

so today, just for the day,
i’ll take the time to sleep it off

i’m tired of always feeling so blue
it’s hard to explain but it’s nothing new
i wish that i could be bouncing back easily 
that i could overcome all of my anxiety

so today, just for the day,
i’ll take the time to sleep it off today, just for the day
i’ll take the time to sleep it off sleep it off.

i let it slide
i pretended it’d be fine to intertwine 
with people drinking their night away 
i tricked myself into thinking
that i’d be capable of ignoring 
the loneliness of a crowded room

i am working on feeling safe
in my own head space
i know there’s a way
for us to share the same space

i’m gonna slip away soon
time is twisting out of shape in here
my thoughts are fully made out of fear 
place your hands on my ears now
so i can quiet down the world around me 
just for a little while

i am working on feeling safe
in my own head space
i know there’s a way
for us to share the same space

let it slide

you gotta breathe you way to a place of stillness 
to give your mind some time
i know it’s easier said than done
but you have make an effort not to run

try to envision what you’re looking for
if you set your intention, you’ll find the door

when it feels like i'm about to come undone 
i try to picture a midnight sun
so much easier said than done
i have make an effort not to run
not to run, not to run, not to run

try to envision what you’re looking for 
set your intention, you’ll find the door

just breathe, just breathe,
breathe

i’m trying to envision what i’m looking for
i set my intention, i know i’ll find a door
and if i keep an open heart, i won’t fall apart 
and it i keep an open heart, i won’t fall apart

breathe

i’m not sure i remember 
what language i was speaking 
but love was at the center of it
are my eyes even open?
i think i’m fading

i guess it’s hard for me 
to look at you and see 
through you the way i used to

how can i see you seeing me 
if my eyes can’t see?
i wonder how much longer 
until i fully lose sight of me
i think i’m fading i think i’m fading

i guess it’s hard for me 
to look at you and see 
through you the way i used to 
my body’s overtaken
by an overload of out of control thinking

fading

lately in my dreams
i can’t seem to keep both my eyes open 
and i wonder why
is there something that i’m not ready to see 
an emotional mountain that i must climb

i’ve got a lot to say
but it’s been easier to cry the sun is on its way
i’m still in the dark
but i’ll give it another try my sun is on its way

how can i see the whole picture
if i cover my eyes half the time?
but i’m terrified of the future
but it seems it’s a mountain i must climb

i’ve got a lot to say
but it’s been easier to cry the sun is on its way
i’m still in the dark
but i’ll give it another try my sun is on its way

she was named after her mother’s favorite flower 
this song’s a reminder that i’ll always be there for her
they say that children soak up the pain that surrounds them 
can someone lend a hand to lift all the pain she has been carrying

oh lilas, it’s hard to believe now
but it’ll get better you just have to hold on tight
i’m right here with you even when i’m an ocean away my love is here to stay

if you need me to help mending you heart back together
mine’s been broken over and over again over time
somehow it got stronger with every storm that rolled over 
it you can sit and wait for the light to come back, 
or just learn to walk in the dark

oh lilas, it’s hard to believe now
but it’ll get better you just have to hold on tight
i’m right here with you even when i’m an ocean away my love is here to stay
