Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lost again, broken and weary
Unable to find my way
Tail in hand, dizzy, and clearly
Unable to just let this go
[Verse 2]
I am surrendering
To gravity and the unknown
Catch me, heal me
Lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live
[Verse 3]
I fell again, like a baby
Unable to stand on my own
Tail in hand, dizzy, and clearly
Unable to just let this go
[Verse 4]
High and surrendering
To gravity and the unknown
Catch me, heal me
Lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live
I choose to live
I choose to live
[Verse 5]
Catch me, heal me
Lift me back up to the sun
Help me survive the bottom
[Verse 6]
Calm these hands before they
Snare another pill and
Drive another nail down
Another needy hole
Please, release me
[Verse 7]
I am surrendering
To gravity and the unknown
Catch me, heal me
Lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live
I choose to live
