Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I live in your nightmares
Your fears know my name
I've been there for so long
Now the water is flooding the cave
I hear the voices
And all the things they say
I'll bear all your burdens
But they weren't mine to take
[PreChorus]
To keep you safe, I'm
[Chorus]
Drowning in your deepest secrets
But I still keep them
Trouble breathing
I love you but you're my weakness
You don't know
But I'm sinking in the waves
I need to let you go
'Cause I can't carry the weight
[Chorus]
Drowning
I can't carry the weight
Drowning
[Verse 2]
I've been fighting to stay here
One too many nights
Now my feet are caught up
On the rocks as we push through the tide
I see all the memories
I still hold 'em in my mind
But I'm hopeless, I'm trembling
Can't take it, I promise I'll try
[PreChorus]
To keep you safe, I'm
[Chorus]
Drowning in your deepest secrets
But I still keep them
Trouble breathing
I love you but you're my weakness
You don't know
But I'm sinking in the waves
I need to let you go
'Cause I can't carry
[Bridge]
The way that you say that you desperately need me
I'm barely alive, now I'm tired, defeated
Gave you my heart and my soul for a reason
Don't wanna leave you alone but I'm bleeding
I've carried the weight of your world on my shoulders
Hope that we'll find our way back when we're older
But I gotta go to survive, now, please believe me
[PreChorus]
To keep you safe, I'm
[Chorus]
Drowning in your deepest secrets
But I still keep them
Trouble breathing
I love you but you're my weakness
You don't know
But I'm sinking in the waves
I need to let you go
'Cause I can't carry the weight
