lyrics

We wake up
We go out
We put up
We break down

Spread so thin
This veneer that coats our skin
Prevents your touch
Yet I feel so much
I feel so...

Underwater but breathing
It's hard just being here
We are done with it all
We are still so involved
We are still so...

Caught up in this shit
We are still a part of this
You've done this to me
I've done this to you

Can't we just let this go
We need to let it all go

There is nothing left
Only Aching regret
This hurt in my chest
Oh, what could have been...
