Too loud inside my head
Feels like crossroads
I can't choose wrong
They say don't stress
Like it's that easy
When my whole future
Feels so unsteady
Every time I slow down
start to look around
Like…
How'd I get here now?
I'm drowning
Trying to breathe
But I'm panicking
Smiling
while I'm sinking
Hoping nobody sees
I think about time a lot
Like I'm running out
Did I do enough?
Did I waste it all?
I try to be strong
Try to be steady
But even on good days
I'm not ready
There's this line in my head
How did you get so far
From who you thought
You would be
When you were 17?
I'm drowning
Trying to breathe,
But panicking
I'm drowning
In my thoughts,
Feeling the pressure
Trying to hold it together
But I'm losing my center
Sometimes I close my eyes
Wish it'd all dissolve
Not asking for perfect
Just… something that works
I'm drowning
Like I'm screaming underwater
I'm drowning
But trying to stay afloat
Till I figure it out
