Bloom from Hanging On by ARRAS

I need to catch my breath, I need to set my pace
I try to find my way, but the sky has never felt so empty
Need to find my place, something other than an early grave.
Beaten into the ground, cut your tongue on the thorns
Dreams used to taste so sweet, now they hang over my head
So I'll choke down the smoke, come to grips with reality
And shed the dead weight
Can't shed the dead parts of me, can't kill off what haunts me
Suck the life right out of me, l'll be just fine
I look for inner peace, always grasping, always missing
If everything is meant to be, why do I feel so caught?
If everything is meant to be, maybe it's fucking not
Can't shed the dead parts of me, can't shake off all that haunts me
Nothing, but endless gloom
Beaten into the ground, cut your tongue on the thorns
Dreams used to taste so sweet, now they hang over my head
So I'll choke down the smoke, come to grips with reality
And shed the dead weight
Shed my old skin, shed the dead weight
and Bloom.
