[Verse 1]
Locked doors, I shut ‘em all
Stopped answerin’ every call
Same room, same empty high
Watchin’ days just pass me by
Told myself I’m still in control
While it’s diggin’ out my soul
[Pre-Chorus]
Numb felt better than the pain
So I went back again… and again
[Chorus]
I was driftin’, I was gone
Couldn’t tell right from wrong
Every line I said I’d never cross
Turned to somethin’ that I lost
I was breathin’… barely there
Didn’t know if anyone cared
[Verse 2 – the attempt]
Small trailer down in Cottondale
Air went thick and my skin turned pale
Mixed it heavy, knew the risk
Didn’t fight it… came to this
Didn’t call, didn’t cry
Didn’t even ask “why?”
Laid back slow, let it pull
Tired of hurtin’, tired of full
[Bridge]
No fight left… I let it go
If I slipped, no one would know
[Break ]
But you found me…
Before I was gone
[Verse 3 – pulled back]
Hands on me, voices loud
Pulled me back out of the ground
Didn’t earn it, didn’t try
Still somehow I didn’t die
[Final Chorus]
I was broken, I was lost
Countin’ every single cost
Every road I tried to run
Led me back to what I’d done
Then I felt it, soft and low
Deeper than I’d ever go
Not a voice… but somethin’ true
Sayin’, “I’m still here with you”
[Outro]
Didn’t earn it, didn’t fight
But you pulled me back to life
