These days I don’t feel a thing
(caught up in the mess I made for myself)
I’m pushing everyone away
(caught up in the mess I made for myself)
I don’t truly know my friends
(caught up in the mess I made for myself)
I don’t truly know myself either
(caught up in the mess I made for myself)
I just know that I’m numb
(caught up in the mess I made for myself)
And I would give anything to feel again
(caught up in the mess I made for myself)
(caught up in the mess I’m drowning in)
(caught in the mess I’m drowning)
(caught in the mess)
(I’m drowning)
(in)
