[Intro]
(B**t drops with a melancholic piano melody and subtle trap hi-hats)
[Verse 1]
Sunrise bleedin' through the blinds again, another sleepless night
Got these demons on my shoulders, tryna win the f***t, but it's tight
Sippin' on the purple, tryna blur the edges of the pain
Memories like movies playin' in my brain, on replay, insane
Told her I was different, swore I'd never be the one to leave
Now the silence in this empty room is all that I believe
Got these prescriptions in my pocket, got the words inside my chest
Tryna find some kind of meaning, put my broken soul to test
They see the fame, the flashing lights, they think I made it to the peak
But the real w*r's in the mirror, every single damn week
Heart on fire, mind on ice, yeah, that's the lethal mix I sip
Pour another cup of numbness, let it burn upon my lips
[Chorus]
Yeah, it's always midnight thoughts when the world gets quiet
Chasin' highs just to escape it, but I can't deny it
This pain inside my chest, yeah, it's a constant battle cry
Just wanna feel alive again, before I say goodbye
(Goodbye, goodbye)
These feelings overflowin', yeah, they d***n me in the deep
Promises I couldn't keep playin' on repeat, on repeat...
[Verse 2]
Remember holdin' hands tight, thought that nothin' could go wrong
But the pressures kept on buildin', where the hell did we belong?
Now the texts are read but faded, conversations turned to dust
Buildin' trust just to break it, yeah, self-destruction is a must?
I paint the picture with the verses, bleed the ink out on the page
Tryna cage the rage and sorrow, turnin' to a different stage
But the baggage, yeah, it's heavy, draggin' footsteps slow and low
Another show, another city, where the real me? I don't know
They want the hits, the catchy phrases, want the energy, the flex
But all I got is these confessions, and the lies that come up next
Tryna medicate the hollow, fill the void with smoke and sound
Know I'm runnin' out of time now, feel my feet leave solid ground
[Chorus]
Yeah, it's always midnight thoughts when the world gets quiet
Chasin' highs just to escape it, but I can't deny it
This pain inside my chest, yeah, it's a constant battle cry
Just wanna feel alive again, before I say goodbye
(Goodbye, goodbye)
These feelings overflowin', yeah, they d***n me in the deep
Promises I couldn't keep playin' on repeat, on repeat...
[Bridge]
Is this livin'? Or just existin'? Feelin' trapped inside the fame
Every victory feels hollow, whisperin' my real name
The real me's lost and lonely, hidin' underneath the glare
Is there anybody out there? Does anybody even care?
Beyond the streams, beyond the views, beyond the hype and noise
Just a broken-hearted boy, searchin' for some inner poise...
[Chorus]
Yeah, it's always midnight thoughts when the world gets quiet
Chasin' highs just to escape it, but I can't deny it
This pain inside my chest, yeah, it's a constant battle cry
Just wanna feel alive again, before I say goodbye
(Goodbye, goodbye)
These feelings overflowin', yeah, they d***n me in the deep
Promises I couldn't keep playin' on repeat, on repeat...
[Outro]
(Piano melody becomes more prominent, b**t simplifies and fades slowly)
(Ad-libs: "On repeat... yeah... midnight... thoughts...")
(Vocals fade into soft humming, then silence)
