Lose

(album: With Confidence - 2021)

Lock me in my room for days
Drown me in your purple haze
Tried so hard to change my ways
Tell my mom it's not a phase
Catch me from this second floor
Use the window, not the door
Hold me close like you did before
No use hiding anymore

I've been swimming so long
I forgot how to breathe
I've been waiting so long
I forgot how to leave
Don't you let me down, let me down
Don't you let me down
Drink my troubles away
So I forget how to grieve

Cultivate for cabarets
Count your money, count your days
Fold my paper life away
Tell me how it's not okay
Read me all your stupid laws
Count your blessings, count your flaws
Crunch me down between your jaws
Pick my bones out with your claws

I've been swimming so long
I forgot how to breathe
I've been waiting so long
I forgot how to leave
Don't you let me down, let me down
Don't you let me down
Drink my troubles away
So I forget how to grieve

Don't tell me nothing's wrong
I forget how to breathe
Don't tell me nothing's wrong
I forget how to breathe
Don't tell me nothing's wrong
I forget how to breathe
Don't tell me nothing's wrong
I forgot how to breathe
