Lyrics

I don't feel anything, I'm getting numb

I am emotionally detached and becoming insensitive.

And when I need to see I use my thumb

I use distractions, like my phone, to avoid facing reality.

Drifting away seems alright

Escaping or drifting away feels acceptable or comforting.


I like to feast with junk when I'm bored

I indulge in unhealthy habits when I am bored.

I feel I'm stuffed but I want more

Even when satisfied, I crave more, suggesting insatiable desires.

Drifting away seems alright

Escaping or drifting away remains an appealing option.


And if you lose me from sight shame subsides

If you lose sight of me, any shame I feel diminishes.

But if you stand by me

If you support me, I am inclined to run away with you.

I wanna run away with you

Expressing a desire to escape with someone.

I wanna sail away with you

Expressing a desire to sail away with someone.


What if it's right what if it's wrong

Contemplating the uncertainty of choices (right or wrong).

I wanna lie my way up to this world

Expressing a desire to deceive or manipulate to succeed.

Drifting away feels alright

Escaping or drifting away is perceived as satisfying.


I wanna stall you know I wanna crawl

Expressing a desire to delay or hinder someone or something.

I wanna fake my smile to profit more

Expressing a desire to pretend happiness for personal gain.

Drifting away feels alright

Escaping or drifting away is deemed satisfactory.


And if you lose me from sight shame subsides

If you lose sight of me, any shame I feel diminishes.

But if you stand by me

If you support me, I am inclined to run away with you.

I wanna run away with you

Expressing a desire to escape with someone.

I wanna sail away with you

Expressing a desire to sail away with someone.


And now this hole I dug it's getting deep

Describing a self-created emotional struggle that is deepening.

I need this constant noise to get some sleep

Dependence on constant noise to cope with inner turmoil and find sleep.

Drifting away to feel alright

Escaping or drifting away is seen as a way to feel better.


I need to sail away to see the sun

Expressing a need to escape to witness positivity or light.

I need to go I need to run

Feeling a compulsion to leave or escape quickly.

Drifting away to feel alright

Escaping or drifting away is perceived as a means to feel better.


And if you lose me from sight shame subsides

If you lose sight of me, any shame I feel diminishes.

But if you stand by me

If you support me, I am inclined to run away with you.

I wanna run away with you

Expressing a desire to escape with someone.

I wanna sail away with you

Expressing a desire to sail away with someone.
