Yrbk - Grey Skies

Caught between my worst and my best
My brain can't resist all the stress
It's hard to believe how all this connects
You're right if you guessed that I'm way too obsessed
With the way that I'm reacting to the fear in my life
No REM cycles when I'm sleeping every night
Got strung up in a rhythm I religiously recite
I'm convinced that I might take my mental illness lightly

Holding on to thorns just isn't healthy
Like, can anyone help me?
I've been losing patience even though I got it together
But do I got it together?

Oh, I hate the way that I'm still amazed
At everything that hurts me still
Wish I could turn around emotions at will
But lately I've been taking every loss alone
And that taught me the most
Out here, it's either kill or be killed
You gotta turn around emotions at will
So maybe I will

Can't stay stuck where life doesn't grow
Can't be in rooms where doors never close
My hearts gonna break if it's faking on the low
I'd rather stay cold, either that or go ghost
I remember when my happiness was effortless to strike
Full REM cycles when I'd slumber every night
Yet, every rhythm led me to a fall out or a fight
It was clear that I might take my mental illness lightly

Holding on to thorns just isn't healthy
Like, can anyone help me?
I've been losing patience even though I got it together
But do I got it together?

Oh, I hate the way that I'm still amazed
At everything that hurts me still
Wish I could turn around emotions at will
But lately I've been taking every loss alone
And that taught me the most
Out here, it's either kill or be killed
You gotta turn around emotions at will
So maybe I will
