Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always some reason to feel not good enough,
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction, oh a beautiful release..
memory seeps from my veins..
let me be empty, oh, and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
