Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I had a vision last night
Night diving in Monterey
That water on my skin
It washed my shame away
[PreChorus]
And I've been sipping on a poison
Even on the days I taste it
Run into the same wall
All because I just can't face it
[Chorus]
And I'm tired of running from the conversations
Screaming in the silence all alone
And I miss the innocence that it has taken
Oh, I'm frustrated, I can't take it
But I'll fake it, then I'll hate myself again
[Verse 2]
I had a vision last night
Horses on the granite plains
That sound of freedom stampeding
Why can't I feel the same?
[PreChorus]
And I've been sleeping wide awake
Slow dancing 'round the cracks in the floorboards
Fighting myself while lying in a
Bed I made and can't ignore
[Chorus]
And I'm tired of running from the conversations
Screaming in the silence all alone
And I miss the innocence that it has taken
Oh, I'm frustrated, I can't take it
But I'll fake it, then I'll hate myself again
[Bridge]
Ooh
Ooh
[Outro]
Oh, I'm frustrated, I can't take it
But I'll fake it, then I'll hate myself
I'm bleeding, I can't breathe in
And I'm tearing at the seams
Oh, I'm so scared that I won't make it out
I'll let you down
And I'll hate myself again
