*deep inhalation*

lyrics

I’m sorry to be honest but I’m so tired of the way i make myself feel
I know it to be something that I can’t seem to run away from
Cause feelings often come in ways that we do not expect
And often I get weary days that I wouldn’t select
But I know that it’s better to feel everything than nothing at all

There’s hope in the tears I cry
There’s strength in the pain cause I’m
Still trying
Might feel a little weight of doubt
But I’ll find my way back out

So that I can

Breathe in
I guess I should just breathe out
Won’t you just, breathe in
I guess I should just breathe out

I often find the worry
Speaks louder than my voice
It screams and shouts
Letting it out feels often like no choice

But I’m learning to be stronger
And whisper to it back
That I will no more longer
Let it think that I might lack

The ways to

Breathe in
I guess I should just breathe out, breathe out
Won’t you just, breathe in
I guess I should just breathe out

I’m hopeless in rewinding
The truth is in the cracks
Of memories lost to timing
I wish I could go back

But something moves me forward
To make and mend a space
That lends itself to better health
I’m finding a new way to

Breathe in
I guess I should just breathe out, breathe out
Won’t you just

Breathe in
I guess I should just breathe out
I guess, I guess I should just
Breathe in
I guess I should just breathe out, breathe out
Breathe, breathe in

I guess I should just reach out
