lyrics

Honestly I “know” but I don’t “understand”
I've got my thoughts out, on paper all the
truth written right here, But I am confused
Was this blueprint wrong?

Something that I thought i knew was fading
I feel like this dive, has no end to it
Theres something every time I go to breathe
how long will it take, for this air to clear my mind

Slow suicide, breathing cigarette smoke
tasting the bitter sighs
(Growing up, Growing up now)
You know all I need right nows a sign for a way
Just carry me downstream// now have me your way

Honestly I “know” but I don’t “understand”
I've got my thoughts out, on paper all the
truth written right here, But I am confused
Was this blueprint wrong?

Theres something I don’t know but
what if the triangle you see has no sides to me?
How long will this water take
(Before it) starts to nourish my thirst?
Stop drowning me

The water gets deeper
I’ve forgot the “why” not “How”
My footing always lets me down
Just carry me downstream// now, have me your way

Honestly I “know” but I don’t “understand”
I've got my thoughts out, on paper all the
truth written right here, But I am confused
Was this blueprint wrong?
