lyrics

I wanna make sure I get through this
When the stoplight changes colors
All the guilt that I’ve carried with so far
Keeps dragging me down, so I’ll keep my
Head to the ground
Don’t make a sound

Don’t pretend that it’s all pretend to me
I wish it was, but it’s not that easy
Keeping track of all the attacks
Keeps pulling me under, push my
Head in the dirt
Don’t make it worse

Fight fire with fireworks and ride it out
Write it off as if it wasn’t anything
Please tell my brain to stop rotting
Please tell my feet to stop running

Head to the ground
Head in the dirt
Don’t make a sound
Don’t make it worse
