lyrics

I try to shake it off
Just like the rain
I tried to call you back
But the phone never rang
And I'm starting to feel like the dial tone
Is my new best friend
And I am falling, falling again

Its getting crazier in here
I dont think I can make it another year
Its getting louder inside my head
Everyones passing me by but
I'd rather sleep instead

I try to make you think
I'm doing just fine
Please dont worry
I'm prone to getting by
But honestly ive been spiraling
For quite some time
Its not your fault
That all i do is lie

Its getting crazier in here
I dont think I can make it another year
Its getting louder inside my head
Everyones passing me by but
I'd rather sleep instead

And there are steps that I take
Every single day
To make you believe I'm okay
And there are rules that i follow
In my sleep
It should be harder to live than it is to dream

There are things that no one wants to hear
So I sew my smile on and pray to disappear

Its getting crazier in here
I dont think I can make it another year
Its getting louder inside my head
Everyones passing me by but
I'd rather sleep instead
