Don't tell me I'm hopeless
Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair
I can feel it in my bones again
Like I'm already there

Slow things down
To speed them up
Not enough
Or way too much?
I'm in my head again
My medicine
Is poison in my blood

You swear to God it's not a remedy
But you can't feel the way I feel
So I let it take control of me
And for a second I'll pretend like
Nothing else is real

Don't tell me I'm hopeless
Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair
I can feel it in my bones again
Like I'm already there
Don't tell me I'm broken
Don't tell me I'll never see the end
Fill my lungs to taste the oxygen
And pull me in
So I can breathe again

I'm coming down
I'm waking up
Just let me go
I've had enough
Venom in my skin
I'm wearing thin
Oh God, what have I done?

You swear to God it's not a remedy
But you can't feel the way I feel
So I let it take control of me

Don't tell me I'm hopeless
Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair
I can feel it in my bones again
Like I'm already there
Don't tell me I'm broken
Don't tell me I'll never see the end
Fill my lungs to taste the oxygen
And pull me in
So I can breathe again

Nothing left here to say
You hate to see me this way
I'm sorry for the way I am
But I'm not
Strong enough to change
If I asked you to stay
Would you carry me?
Or would you leave me in the dark
And tell me
Everything's my fault
I'm a lost cause

Don't tell me I'm hopeless
Don't tell me I'm gone beyond repair
I can feel it in my bones again
Like I'm already there
Don't tell me I'm broken
Don't tell me I'll never see the end
Fill my lungs to taste the oxygen
And pull me in
So I can breathe again
