Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Unread texts and missed calls
Told everyone I turned my phone off
Didn't ask for help and now I'm lost
Life comes in phases (Yeah)
Consequences and mistakes
I'm sorry that it's taken me so long
[Verse 2]
Mister, mister, please let off your power
Give me half an hour
Or better yet, a full
Only sweet until it all goes sour
But life is what you make it
And then there's more to lose
[Verse 3]
Gatekeeper, can you show me more to life?
Lately I've been livin' out of spite
Grim Reaper, just give me one more night
I need another chance to say goodbye
I shouldn't have to die to feel alive
[Verse 4]
Here's the thing with disappearin'
You can yell and no one hears ya
Times like this I need an ear
When I finally have so much to say
Wish I could see your face, oh
And do what I have to stop the tears
[Verse 5]
Sister, sister, please know that I'm sorry
I wish you could have stopped me
From fallin' off the hill
Only sweet until it all goes sour
My path is what you make it
Until it gets to real (Until it gets to real)
[Verse 6]
Gatekeeper, can you show me more to life?
Lately I've been livin' out of spite
Grim Reaper, just give me one more night
I need another chance to say goodbye
I shouldn't have to die to feel alive
