Lyrics

Out of Sight Out of mind Out of reach

Feeling distant, not actively considered or remembered, unattainable

Breathe in

Take a breath

Breathe in and out again

Inhale and exhale repeatedly

And pretend that everything is fine

Act as if everything is okay despite the actual circumstances

Pretend that everything is fine

Continue the facade of everything being okay


Waking up before the sun

Waking up early, possibly before feeling ready or prepared

My eyes don't change

My expression or emotions remain unchanged

My eyes don't change

-

And the air in my lungs

The air I breathe feels stagnant or unpleasant

Oh it tastes stale

The air I breathe tastes unpleasant or unappealing

Oh it tastes stale

-

And the burden of guilt it weighs so heavy

Feeling a heavy weight of remorse or wrongdoing

When have I ever done you wrong

Questioning past actions or behavior that may have hurt someone

And the burden of guilt it weighs so heavy

Feeling a heavy weight of remorse or wrongdoing

When have I ever done you wrong

Questioning past actions or behavior that may have hurt someone

Oh wait

Realization or sudden recognition


Out of Sight Out of mind Out of reach

Feeling distant, not actively considered or remembered, unattainable

Breathe in

Take a breath

Breathe in and out again

Inhale and exhale repeatedly

And pretend that everything is fine

Act as if everything is okay despite the actual circumstances

Pretend that everything is fine

Continue the facade of everything being okay


I try to make amends

Trying to reconcile or make up for past mistakes

Hide away to fight the pain and null the taste of regret

Retreating to avoid facing pain and trying to numb the feeling of regret

But it doesn't work

The coping mechanism used doesn't alleviate the pain

I try to make amends

Trying to reconcile or make up for past mistakes

Hide away to fight the pain and null the taste of regret

Retreating to avoid facing pain and trying to numb the feeling of regret


Out of Sight Out of mind Out of reach

Feeling distant, not actively considered or remembered, unattainable

Breathe in

Take a breath

Breathe in and out again

Inhale and exhale repeatedly

And pretend that everything is fine

Act as if everything is okay despite the actual circumstances

Pretend that everything is fine

Continue the facade of everything being okay


I try

Putting effort into making amends or fixing things

I try

-

To make amends

Trying to reconcile or make up for past mistakes

But it doesn't work

The attempts to rectify the situation are unsuccessful

I'm wearing thin

Feeling emotionally drained or exhausted

I try

Putting effort into making amends or fixing things

I try

-

I try

Putting continuous effort into making amends or fixing things

I try

-

I try

-

Try

Continuing efforts despite difficulties or failures

I try

-

I try

-

I try

-

Woah

An expression of determination or perseverance
