Lyrics

I've been living in my head, it's a dangerous place
Every thought feels like a war that I can't erase
I'm trying to breathe, but the air's too thin
They tell me to start, but where do I begin? (where do I begin?)
I'm carrying a future that I can't define (ohh)
I'm chasing dreams that don't feel like mine
Some days I'm okay, most days I'm not
But I keep on running from the things I forgot
(Okay)
And the clock keeps ticking, but I'm standing still
Trying to climb a mountain, I don't think I will
The weight of the world keeps pulling me down
But I'll keep fighting even if I drown
Every tear I've cried is a step to survive
I'm still here, still trying to feel alive
The weight of the world can't break me tonight
(Tonight)
I fake a smile when they ask if I'm fine
But my reflection tells me it's all just a lie
I'm scared of the silence
I'm scared of the noise
Lost in the echoes of my own voice
They say these years are supposed to be gold
But no one prepares you for feeling this cold
I'm learning to walk while the ground caves in
Hoping there's a reason for the mess I'm in
So I'll take each breath like it's my last
Leave the pain behind, let go of the past
The weight of the world won't bury me whole
I'll rise again, I'll take back control
(Oh)
(Oh)
(Ohh, oh)
(Okay)
And the clock keeps ticking, but I'm standing still
Trying to climb a mountain, I don't think I will
The weight of the world keeps pulling me down
But I'll keep fighting even if I drown
Every tear I've cried is a step to survive
I'm still here, still trying to feel alive
The weight of the world can't break me tonight
(Tonight)
Maybe the cracks are where I'll grow
Maybe the rain is what I need to know
That even in darkness, there's a spark of light
And even in struggle, I'll find my fight
And the clock keeps ticking, but I'm standing still
Trying to climb a mountain, I don't think I will
The weight of the world keeps pulling me down
But I'll keep fighting even if I drown
Every tear I've cried is a step to survive
I'm still here, still trying to feel alive
The weight of the world can't break me tonight
(Tonight)
(The weight of the world can't break me tonight)
(Tonight)
(Tonight)
(Can't break me tonight)
