Hannah Byers - Drifting

My head's on your shoulder but my mind's lost to a dream
All I hear's commit to a fatal scheme
Drift further each day
Drifting away
Why am I a shadow of the girl I used to be?
I will be gone before the clock turns '23
I wish I could believe it when you say that you love me
But I see all of these faces knowing they're better without me
My thoughts are so lethal I feel detached from my body
Staring in your eyes, I feel beyond distant
My mind is relentlessly drifting
I walk down these hallways thinking this is my last time
What a shame it'd be if I took my life
I wish I could say I'd make younger self proud
I watch them smile while I sit on the side lines
Battling the toxins in my lost mind
Drift further each day
Drifting away
Why am I a shadow of the girl I used to be?
I will be gone before the clock turns '23
I wish I could believe it when you say that you love me
But I see all of these faces knowing they're better without me
My thoughts are so lethal I feel detached from my body
Staring in your eyes, I feel beyond distant
My mind is relentlessly drifting
I'm drifting
I'm drifting away
You can't save what wasn't meant to stay
Why does my mind make feel worthless?
I know I don't deserve this
Drifting
I've drifted away
I don't feel like I was meant to stay
Why does my mind make me feel worthless?
I hope that I push through this
I wish I could believe it when you say that you love me
But I see all of these faces knowing they're better without me
My thoughts are so lethal I feel detached from my body
Staring in your eyes, I feel beyond distant
My mind is relentlessly drifting
