Lifeless ft. Akotowaa & Fu Lyrics

He's been in tears all night

It's been a long, long, long drive

These friendly lies

Won't work on him tonight

Wasted time on earth

Not even one relationship's worked

He parks to the side

Wishing the tides would drown out his mind

Will this end these lifeless cycles

Always move in lifeless circles

Will this end these lifeless cycles

Made to be my end

Will this end these lifeless cycles

Always move in lifeless circles

Will this end these lifeless cycles

In over my head

Over my head

What else could this become

What more could go undone

Why suffer it much longer

When you know just how it runs

When you know you've had enough

What else is there to do

How bout you take a leap

A leap into the blue

He stops to think

If it's a curse or gift

He turns or blinks

Someone else made it

He knows it could end in a second

If only he'd stop remembering

How they danced in the light

Next day she died

Years down the line

Beginning to think

This might be his time to dive

Will this end these lifeless cycles

Always move in lifeless circles

Will this end these lifeless cycles

Made to be my end

Will this end these lifeless cycles

Always move in lifeless circles

Will this end these lifeless cycles

In over my head

Over my head

It's the pain you can't condone

The pain of being nothing

Believing nothing

Feeling all

Knowing something that they don't

Showing happy when they poke

It's the pain that kills your soul

It's the pain you cannot kill

Unless you take that final pill

Time to use your final will

The one prayer you've not said

Taking your life by your hands

Thinking it's better to return

To the nothingness beyond

What's heaven without the souls

You've been nothing here alive

So make death the final goal

I know you never saw yourself where you are now

Not when you were still drunk on the promise of your youth

I remember you sung with the power of a soloist

Whose voice could bring the choir itself to its knees

And everywhere you stumbled

Your fall was always cushioned by the reassurance of your dreams

Then heaven claimed your biggest fan

And now you feel no further forward in this than when you first began

Waiting for ages for a takeoff the world just couldn't seem to bring

And now you're considering trying to fly off without wings

But listen

I need you to remember you're on a mission

And there's a reason why birds of the air don't belong in the ocean

I need you to stay

Personified magnificence

You take my breath away

You can't cut yours off in haste

Gently he steps

Away from the pier

Praying that grace overtakes the despair

Holding on tight to the hope of a life

Full and complete, in the truth of the light

Will this end

These lifeless cycles

Over my head
