Swallow Me Whole

by I Saw Daylight

There is so much that is wrong
But I keep answering „I'm fine“
I am hiding behind words
I keep smiling though I'd rather die
It's in my head and I try to make the best of it
But I feel dead when I put my hands on my chest, no beat
I have forgotten how to come alive
I will never live again
There is so much in this world
That I have tried to leave behind
Things that you have never heard of
I could tell the truth, I'd rather lie
It's on my tongue and I try to swallow everything
At the bottom of a well, is where I find myself today
Drag me to the deep, lights above me
Something I will never reach
At the bottom of a well
Is where I will always stay
All alone, drown me to sleep, swallow me whole
Everything continues to function
But will it last for a lifetime
Is this what I want or what I wanted once
But never believed in
There is so much that I've learned
But I keep following the dark
All the thoughts that have returned
Then inforced, I've set aside
And I'm still dead, I have overturned my mind
Being alive feels harder than I thought
Deeper and deeper I'm digging my grave
