Wondering if I am okay
Destroying myself, attacking the enemy
God gave me just one last chance
And if I give in, I'll be dead by daylight
Wondering if I am okay
Destroying myself, attacking the enemy
God gave me just one last chance
And if I give in, I'll be dead by daylight
Panic attacks, knife in my back
Monsters in my mind, make me run track
Can't react, death is cuddling with me
People are huddling around me, devil struggles
With me Behind the crowd, he's chuckling at me
Missing puzzle piece or something
Missing puzzle piece or something
You know how it is
With the life I lived
I can't take no more
Of killing myself and
But I know that
It's gonna be just fine
If I take this one last chance and people are caring for me
They're standing over me, looking at me
They're wondering if I'm gonna make it, make it
Looking at me, looking at me And they're
Wondering if I am okay
Destroying myself, attacking the enemy
God gave me just one last chance
And if I give in, I'll be dead by daylight
Wondering if I am okay
Destroying myself, attacking the enemy
God gave me just one last chance
And if I give in, I'll be dead by daylight
Fall to the floor, blood in the nose
Foam at the mouth, Going south
Death is right next to me
Breath is so far away from me
Float far away from me I need to free me
I need to free myself, you know what it's about
I'm freaking out, bleeding out
Vision going blurry, if you was there
You know what this song about
All my doubt, I tried to shout
But nothing comes out
Trying to count the times
That everything I love got burnt to the ground
Sound of my heart pounds
Though it really wasn't worth it anyway
Killing myself slowly
Drowning in the syrup
Straight out the 20 ounce
I'm starting to lose count
How many times I almost died
How many times I done cried
How many times I, I, I, I'm
Wondering if I am okay
Destroying myself, attacking the enemy
God gave me just one last chance
And if I give in, I'll be dead by daylight
Wondering if I am okay
Destroying myself, attacking the enemy
God gave me just one last chance
And if I give in, I'll be dead by daylight
