In the night I sit alone
Lifeless to the world I know
Faith lost long ago
In this graveyard I'm calling home
Carved into the stone
A diary of broken bones
And words I should've known
But this grave's too deep to ever make it up
And I'd do anything, anything
Just to feel like I could reach the ground
I'd do anything, anything now
To spread these wings somehow
I scream these words so loud
But they never make a sound
I'm alive
But I'm barely breathing now
So place my heart under the ground
Lay me down
And I'm alive
But I'm barely breathing now
So tread my lungs into the ground
Lay me down
In the night I sit alone
The stars rain on the world below
Beg me to explode
'Cause these dreams I keep are nowhere to be found
I'd do anything, anything
Just to stop this weight from pressing down
I'd do anything, anything now
To spread these wings somehow
I scream these words so loud
But they never make a sound
I'm alive
But I'm barely breathing now
So place my heart under the ground
Lay me down
And I'm alive
But I'm barely breathing now
So tread my lungs into the ground
Lay me down
Deep enough so that I'll never feel again
From beneath, any chance in breaking scale
Well, I'm giving in
And all the promise of smiles and happiness
That's a dream I'm not willing to admit
No, I'm not ready yet to face regret
No, I'm not ready yet, I'm not ready yet
No, no, no
I'd do anything now
To spread these wings somehow
I scream these words so loud
But they never make a sound
I'm alive
But I'm barely breathing now
So place my heart under the ground
Lay me down
And I'm alive
But I'm barely breathing now
Tread my lungs into the ground
Lay me down
