Start with forgetting everything you’ve come to know.
It makes things easier when time becomes too hard to follow.
Breaking out of this state; misplaced trust.
We choose to burn down everything we’ve come to love.
I can’t help myself - I’m taking things back.
Hold it in for self-defense and then attack.
This king tide won’t drown out my home.
I’ve learnt to breathe in suffocating misery.
We place the verdict in those lines we’ve heard before.
A comprehensive way of saying it’s not our fault,
But “where do you see yourself in ten years time?”
Is a question I can’t wrap my head around.
I can’t help myself - I’m taking things back.
Hold it in for self-defense and then attack.
This king tide won’t drown out my home.
I’ve learnt to breathe in suffocating misery.
Every day it’s getting closer.
I can feel it getting stronger.
I can only hope that when it lands it’s not too close.
I can’t help myself - I’m taking things back.
Hold it in for self-defense and then attack.
This king tide won’t drown out my home.
I’ve learnt to breathe in suffocating misery.
I breathe in suffocating…
Learnt to breathe in suffocating misery.
