Lyrics:
I wrangle my mind
It doesn’t work every time
When my brain is on fire It singes the ropes
And it burns me down with it Till I’m comatose

And I don’t feel real Maybe I’m not
But I wake up and I’m still here
So how do I go on

With this weight on my chest
That I can’t seem to shake
When the seams of reality
Are starting to fray
Life still goes on while I watch through a window
And beg on my knees please God
Why can’t I be normal?
Why can’t I feel normal?

I try to swim through the noise
As if I have a choice
But the drugs didn’t work
So I choke on the hurt
The good days they still fight
Hold me like a lifeline

Till I don’t feel real And I’m paralyzed
My dreams and I take a backseat
We’re along for the ride
For the war in my mind

With this weight on my chest
That I can’t seem to shake
When the seams of reality
Are starting to fray
Life still goes on while I watch through a window
And beg on my knees please
God Why can’t I be normal?
Why can’t I feel normal?

All the pain it’s hard to describe
The trauma that sits in the back of my mind
Corrupting thoughts that pass me by
Everyday is a battle it puts up a fight
It seems its armor is thicker than mine
But sometimes I see cracks when the light hits just right

Abused by the ebb and flow
The betrayal of my hope
The dreamer inside
She still has me by the throat
I don’t have the answer but I’ll keep on trying
It’s all I can do when I wake up this tired
