Lewis Capaldi
Wakin’ up too early, static on the TV.
Dressed in all the clothes I had on.
When yesterday decided I didn’t need to fight with
The hours and the seconds no more.
Doin’ all the things that I’m supposed to.
Workin’ every day the way that most do.
Smilin’ while I’m hidin’ what I’m goin’ through.
But you know, you know, you know…
That if I’m being honest.
I couldn’t tell you this is all I wanted.
I struggle sleeping ’cause the house feels haunted.
Filled with the shadows of regret and the things I should’ve said,
To the ones I laid to rest, and lately,
I’m terrified that all my youth is fading.
Man, growing old is so excruciating.
Is there a cure for minds unwell?
‘Cause my head’s a living hell.
If I’m honest with myself.
Stumble as I’m leavin’, one foot takes the lead and
Second seems to struggle to find,
A solitary reason to continue seekin’
Any use in walkin’ this line.
Doin’ all the things that I’m supposed to.
Workin’ every day the way that most do.
Smilin’ while I’m hidin’ what I’m goin’ through.
But you know, you know, you know…
That if I’m being honest.
I couldn’t tell you this is all I wanted.
I struggle sleeping ’cause the house feels haunted.
Filled with the shadows of regret and the things I should’ve said,
To the ones I laid to rest, and lately,
I’m terrified that all my youth is fading.
Man, growing old is so excruciating.
Is there a cure for minds unwell?
‘Cause my head’s a living hell.
If I’m honest with myself.
So how am I supposed to see an end,
To my all-consuming, constant fear and dread?
When I can’t even seem to make it out of bed.
Yeah if I’m being honest.
I couldn’t tell you this is all I wanted.
I struggle sleeping ’cause the house feels haunted.
Filled with the shadows of regret and the things I should’ve said,
To the ones I laid to rest, and lately,
I’m terrified that all my youth is fading.
Man, growing old is so excruciating.
Is there a cure for minds unwell?
‘Cause my head’s a living hell.
If I’m honest with myself.
