Unraveling

My head’s a mess unlike it’s ever been
The days drag on - when I’m alone, they’re forever long
I wanna be the good man, the one I was meant to be
Maybe if I was a good man, maybe I’d be proud of me

I wanna put in the work, I wanna try my hardest
I wanna stay stable, I wanna get better
These chemicals contain me, keep me locked in my room
I’m wired to stay lazy, but I’m trying for you

I pull at my strings, unraveling good things
Throw them away - with nothing to lose, would I be safe?

I wanna put in the work, I wanna try my hardest
I wanna stay stable, I wanna get better
These chemicals contain me, keep me locked in my room
I’m wired to stay lazy, but I’m trying for you

Then something clicked
I’m okay, just a little sick, but it too will pass
There’s help out there, I just had to ask
I’m gonna be the good man you’ve always seen in me
I am who I’ve always been, worthy of love and you’re heaven-sent
