Burden - I Didn't Want to Wake Up Lyrics

Sleeping in cycles and you'll never know
Haunt me forever or just let me go
Filter my faults and I pray that I stay
Distill these nightmares that won't go away

So is everything the way you thought it'd be? Or still empty?
Just let me breathe
There's wars we fight against ourselves, and no one's set to make it out

Settle, sink, pretend
The pages are filled in the end
Settle, sink, pretend
Fade out and follow the note
And I don't think, that it's worth it
To race a clock and think that you will finish in time
So settle, sink, pretend
And I'll stay alone

So is everything the way you thought it'd be? Or still empty? Just let me breathe
There's wars we fight against ourselves, and no one's set to make it out
Just let me go
Hollow and haunted my mind in the end
Rope at the gallows, a lonely lament

We're all just trying to make it out
Why make it hard for someone else?

Will this be enough for you?
Cause I can't seem to figure out
Silence fills an open room
And I'm sure I can't pretend
