Ally Rhodes - Carry Me Out

 

My hair never really falls the way i want it to
My nails don?t seem to grow
Don?t know what i?m thinking when i expect them to
I bite them down near to the bone
Sleep won?t come so easily anymore
And i?m realizing
My eyes stay dry
It?s just another form of fighting

"What do you want?" i ask myself
I can?t satisfy the question
There?s always too much or not enough
And i can?t decide the pressing matter
Cuz what does it matter?

Get me out of here
Take me where the water meets the pier
Lead me past the shadow of a doubt
Carry me out
Oh, carry me out

The further i fall, the deeper i get
And the longer i have to wait
It?s like as soon as i get my volume up
I forget what i meant to say
The light burned out so long ago
But i keep trying to reignite it
It?s a lost cause and so am i
If it?s a waste of time, i?ll waste my life

Get me out of here
Take me where the water meets the pier
Lead me past the shadow of a doubt
Carry me out
Oh, carry me out

Rising tides, uneven scores
I am dust, they?re petrichor
Hiding daybreak in their chests
Steal the worthy, leave the rest
I?m left
I?m left
