Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Help me, it's like the walls are caving in
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But I just can't
It isn't in my blood
[Verse 2]
Laying on the bathroom floor, feeling nothing
I'm overwhelmed and insecure, give me something
I could take to ease my mind slowly
Just have a drink and you'll feel better
Just take her home and you'll feel better
Keep telling me that it gets better
Does it ever?
[Verse 3]
Help me, it's like the walls are caving in
Sometimes I feel like giving up
No medicine is strong enough
Someone help me
I'm crawling in my skin
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But I just can't
[Verse 4]
It isn't in my blood
It isn't in my blood
[Verse 5]
I'm looking through my phone again feeling anxious
Afraid to be alone again, I hate this
I'm trying to find a way to chill, can't breathe, oh
Is there somebody who could help me?
[Verse 6]
It's like the walls are caving in
Sometimes I feel like giving up
No medicine is strong enough
Someone help me
I'm crawling in my skin
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But I just can't
[Verse 7]
It isn't in my blood
It isn't in my blood
[Verse 8]
I need somebody now
I need somebody now
Someone to help me out
I need somebody now
[Verse 9]
Help me, it's like the walls are caving in
Sometimes I feel like giving up
But I just can't
[Verse 10]
It isn't in my blood
It isn't in my blood
[Verse 11]
It isn't in my blood
I need somebody now
It isn't in my blood
I need somebody now
It isn't in my blood
