Lyrics:
its been a while now, whats up with this?
guess im still in the middle of the abyss

some waking moments a little too much
recurring, give me a break, they weren’t enough

holding on getting through the best I can
my other timeline comes back again
the one where you never went away
and from high I fall awake
these dreams are killing me
these dreams are killing me

theres no way these colors are real
yet I’m there happily, I fall for them still

then sun through windows is shining gray
proceed to feel the weight of a normal day

holding on getting through the best I can
my other timeline comes back again
the one where you never went away
and from high I fall awake
these dreams are killing me
these dreams are killing me
