By Your Side

(album: Dying Lately - 2021)

Yeah
I know I've been distant and I know I barely listen
I think my head is in the tail spin, I think I've been a little selfish

Just try to understand, I don't mean to
Be this way I've been towards you
Another night of stress, that's what I do best
I feel it in my chest, let me take a deep breath

Don't worry 'bout me 'cause I'll be fine
I got a lot of things running inside my mind
I need a little space, maybe a break sometimes
But I'll make it out alive and I'll be right by your side
And just hold my hand, that's all I need
When everything gets tough and I can't breathe
And everything just sucks and I can't sleep
But I'll make it out alive and I'll be right by your side again

Too many friends come and go
I'm spending way too much time alone and I
I hate growing up
It's not slowing up, I'm still holding up
But I've been living in the past for too long
Days pass way too fast, I'll move on
Just not tonight, I'd rather suffer in silence
I know how to make things worse

I don't know what to do right now, so let me go
I need to work this out all on my own
You try to call me, I turn off my phone 'cause I don't really have much to say
I wanna be alone right now, just let me be
I'm dealing with some things that you can't see
I don't mean to hurt you, this is the worst of me
I promise I'll make all of it up

Just try to understand, I don't mean to
Be this way I've been towards you
Another night of stress, that's what I do best
I feel it in my chest, let me take a deep breath

Don't worry 'bout me 'cause I'll be fine
I got a lot of things running inside my mind
I need a little space, maybe a break sometimes
But I'll make it out alive and I'll be right by your side
And just hold my hand, that's all I need
When everything gets tough and I can't breathe
And everything just sucks and I can't sleep
But I'll make it out alive and I'll be right by your side again

Yeah, yeah
I'll be right by your side again
