Lyrics

Failing to separate the days
The run from one into the next
Can’t seem to find a pulse to chase
I’m barely breathing now

All of these walls are closing in
Escape to corners in my mind
Waiting for something to begin
But hope is hard to find

Until I’m just so sick of it
And I head into the cold
‘Cause I just can’t stand myself anymore

Sidestepping land mines buried deep in the snow
Feeling every single heartbeat come and go
Lay it all out on the line
‘Cause I know I can’t survive
Gotta keep that fire burning in my eyes

If there’s a moment left
That isn’t frozen to the earth
Dig ’til my fingers bleed
Dig deep into the dirt

Because I’m just so sick of it
Feeling trapped and all alone
I just can’t stand myself anymore

REPEAT CHORUS

Sidestepping land mines buried deep in the snow
Time is the enemy when it keeps moving slow
I’m not dying here curled up on the floor
I won’t stand for this life anymore

REPEAT CHORUS
