Holding On
Embracing Redemption: A Melodic Journey of Reflection
Lyrics
I'm fine
I am okay.
I don't need a hit to get by this time
I can handle this without relying on substances.
In another life I woulda walked that line
In a different life, I might have taken a risk.
I can't keep saying, never doing
I need to stop making promises and not following through.
Biting off more than I'm chewing
Taking on more than I can handle.
If I had a dime
If I had a dime...
For all the times I've had a meltdown
Reflecting on times when I had emotional breakdowns.
Id forge a blade, seclude myself
If necessary, I would isolate myself to cope.
Waiting for the urge
Waiting for the impulse to act.
It's an unsuspecting surge
An unexpected surge of emotions.
A rush thru my blood and my stomach starts to burn
A sensation in my blood and a burning stomach.
Praying doesn't help I wish that god would take his turn
Praying doesn't provide relief; I wish fate would intervene.
This punishments enough I've got no place inside an urn
The consequences are severe; I don't belong in an urn (symbolic of death).
Sleep
Desiring sleep as an escape to maintain sobriety.
Is all I wanna do to stay clean
Willing to do whatever it takes to avoid a destructive path.
I'll do what it takes, to stray from the grave
Keeps
Clutching onto past errors.
Holding on to mistakes I've made
Hoping to gain insights from those mistakes.
In hopes that I've learned something
I hope that it means something
More than mere daydreams.
More than just a daydream
Fearing the possibility of missing out on life.
I've got a fear of missing out it seems
Requesting mercy or forgiveness.
Please grant me clemency
Experiencing emotions reminiscent of the past.
Feeling things like years before
A heavy burden on my chest.
This stone was on my chest
Anticipating what the future holds.
Anticipating what's in store
Preserving my dignity and discarding the rest.
Keep my pride and burn the rest
I hope we make it out
Hoping for a positive outcome.
That it's more than a day dream
Desiring more than just daydreams.
I've got a fear of missing out
Fearing the possibility of missing out on life.
Please grant me clemency
Requesting mercy or forgiveness.
Sleep
Desiring sleep as an escape to maintain sobriety.
Is all I wanna do to stay clean
Willing to do whatever it takes to avoid a destructive path.
I'll do what it takes, to stray from the grave
Keeps
Clutching onto past errors.
Holding on to mistakes I've made
Hoping to gain insights from those mistakes.
In hopes that I've learned something
I hope that it means something
More than mere daydreams.
More than just a daydream
Fearing the possibility of missing out on life.
I've got a fear of missing out it seems
Requesting mercy or forgiveness.
Please grant me clemency
Feeling things like years before
Experiencing emotions reminiscent of the past.
This stone was on my chest
A heavy burden on my chest.
Anticipating what's in store
Anticipating what the future holds.
Keep my pride and burn the rest
Preserving my dignity and discarding the rest.
