Even If It Kills Me

(album: All Out - 2019)

Float down this stream
And take in all the pieces you find
Sink into me
Fill up your lungs until your breath becomes mine

Take it in, slow it down
Retrace your steps and start it all again
Take it in, slow it down
Retrace your steps and start it all again

I tried to live
Down in the dark with nothing else left to give
But when my mind lit up and turned it all around
It felt like burning alive and never making a sound

Treated like a true crime
This true love that I call mine
Is it too good to be true,
(Even with you?)
To get dragged down by a rope
And hope to God I'd fucking choke
To sink into myself
(And nobody else)

Take it in, slow it down
Retrace your steps and start it all again
Take it in, slow it down
Retrace your steps and start it all again

If we take a look inside
At all the things that could be
The things you think that should be
I'd hope
To dive in fully blind
Even if it kills me
Even if it kills me

Don't, let go (even if it kills me)
My friend (take it in, slow it down, retrace your steps and start it all again)
Don't lose control (control)
Ever again (but instead)

Let your heartbeat through your ears each time you shout
When you know something you don't wanna know about
So you take my words and you throw them all away
Only to throw yours back, relax, and have you say
"I can't sleep with my head on the floorboards
Nothing in me really wants to be here anymore"
Take your time and learn to be okay
I hope you take your time and learn to be okay
I hope you take your time and learn to be okay
And sink into me

Sink into me
Sink into me
Sink into...
