drowning in salt

lyrics

i say that i’m dying, it’s what i want
i’m done crying i will not drown in salt
in this bedroom where my limbs have grown
too heavy to lift up when i need them

i say that i’m leaving, but i’m scared to go
i want to believe in everybody that i know
or used to know back when we played in dirt
before i realized that was all i was ever worth

i believe that god doesn’t believe in me
you scream that you deserve an apology
i believe that god doesn’t believe in me
i whisper that i’m so fucking sorry
i believe that god doesn’t believe in me
you scream you could have been somebody
i believe that god doesn’t believe in me
you ask me why the hell am i drowning

i say that i’m dead, and i mean it now
can you see the light six feet under ground
like they say in the movies and in your favorite book
i wanted to be better but i wasn’t even good
