Hopeless
And I know that hope is my enemy
Anxiety it rips and tears
It's burning me from inside out
It won't be long before I'm gone
My skin it burns and sears
Breaking me from inside out
It won't be long
This disconnect between my heart and my head
Conflict I will never win
And this is nothing new
I've come to terms with my pain
A life lived drinking it in
But what is hope if not an empty promise of safety
It's only myself I betray waiting for what may never be
There might not be a day when I can say that I'm okay
So until death takes me I'll be carrying this weight
Anxiety it rips and tears
It's burning me from inside out
It won't be long before I'm gone
My skin it burns and sears
Breaking me from inside out
It won't be long
Grip tightening like a vice on my chest
I'm trapped I'm claustrophobic
And this is day to day
Fighting with myself
I am what makes me sick
But what is hope if not an empty promise of safety
It's only myself I betray waiting for what may never be
There might not be a day when I can say that I'm okay
So until death takes me I'll be carrying this weight
And I know that hope is my enemy
Yeah
But what is hope if not an empty promise of safety
It's only myself I betray waiting for what may never be
But what is hope if not an empty promise of safety
It's only myself I betray waiting for what may never be
There might not be a day when I can say that I'm okay
So until death takes me I'll be carrying this weight
But what is hope if not an empty promise of safety
It's only myself I betray waiting for what may never be
There might not be a day when I can say that I'm okay
So until death takes me I'll be carrying this weight
Anxiety it rips and tears
It's burning me from inside out
It won't be long before I'm gone
My skin it burns and sears
Breaking me from inside out
It won't be long
This disconnect between my heart and my head
Conflict I will never win
And this is nothing new
I've come to terms with my pain
A life lived drinking it in
But what is hope if not an empty promise of safety
It's only myself I betray waiting for what may never be
There might not be a day when I can say that I'm okay
So until death takes me I'll be carrying this weight
Anxiety it rips and tears
It's burning me from inside out
It won't be long before I'm gone
My skin it burns and sears
Breaking me from inside out
It won't be long
Grip tightening like a vice on my chest
I'm trapped I'm claustrophobic
And this is day to day
Fighting with myself

There might not be a day when I can say that I'm okay
So until death takes me I'll be carrying this weight
But what is hope if not an empty promise of safety
It's only myself I betray waiting for what may never be
There might not be a day when I can say that I'm okay
So until death takes me I'll be carrying this weight
