Set It Straight

(album: Solace II - 2019)

I
Don't
Like how I'm feeling
Swaying in the branches the ground feels like the ceiling and I'm
Steady going down
Like I knew I would
I'm steady going down like I knew I would
I'm sick of writing sad songs don't hold it against me
But God I'm so empty
Oh God I'm so empty
I don't know if I'll recover from it
Don't ever tempt me
Don't ever tempt me
Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from you
If I set it all straight I can finally look you in your eyes
And finally make you proud
Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from you
If I set it all straight promise me you'll run away
As far as you can go

I
Don't
Like what I'm saying
Write it all down then record it and replay it
It's the
Only thing that helps me feel at peace again
The only thing that helps me feel at ease again
But it doesn't last long it's only a deterrent
To keep me from murdering, to keep me from murdering
I don't know if I'll recover from it nothing is working
Nothing is working

Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from you
If I set it all straight I can finally look you in your eyes
And finally make you proud
Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from you
If I set it all straight promise me you'll run away
As far as you can go

I've got things on my mind I wouldn't tell a soul
If you can hear me now just know you're not alone
