Take a hit of anything
To escape it all, I'm suffocating
A sharpened blade of reality
Sometimes I wanna hurt me
I know it's hard to hear, but I'm
Waiting for the new year
Don't wanna waste my life chasing white
Try to swim towards the light
Coming up for air in the deepest of the deep ends
I thought I'd learned it all, but boom, the plot thickens
Sleeping with giants, I'm tiptoeing quietly
Feeling it all, it's sobriety
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Got so tired of feeling numb
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Well, take a look what I've become
Sleeping with giants, I'm tiptoeing quietly
Feelin' it all, it's sobriety
I wanna make you proud of me
But slowly, I am killing me
Playing with chemistry
Floating to the ceiling
Always rock 'n' roll 'til you die, you know, you been flying
Now I'm shaking at night, sweating the sheets out
Grinding my teeth out
But still the world will glamorize it all
Coming up for air in the deepest of the deep ends
I thought I'd learned it all, but boom, the plot thickens
Sleeping with giants, I'm tiptoeing quietly
Feeling it all, it's sobriety
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Got so tired of feeling numb
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Well, take a look what I've become
Sleeping with giants, I'm tiptoeing quietly
Feeling it all, it's sobriety
If I could leave one thing for you
It's exactly what not to do
I'm so proud of you
Take a look what I've become
Oh, take a look what I-
Coming up for air in the deepest of the deep end
I thought I'd learned it all, but boom, the plot thickens
Sleeping with giants, I'm tiptoeing quietly
Feeling it all, it's sobriety
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Got so tired of feeling numb
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Well, take a look what I've become
Sleeping with giants, I'm tiptoeing quietly
Feeling it all, it's sobriety
