malibu nights
Lany Lyrics

There's no reason, there's no rhyme
I feel lost and confused, unsure of how to proceed

I found myself blindsided by
I was unexpectedly hit by a powerful emotion

A feeling that I've never known
This sensation is new and bewildering to me

I'm dealing with it on my own
I am facing this challenge alone and without support

Phone is quiet, walls are bare
I feel isolated and cut off from the world

I drink myself to sleep, who cares?
I'm trying to numb the pain and forget about it all

No one even has to know
I'm keeping my troubles to myself, and don't want to burden anyone else

I got way too much time to be this hurt
This pain is stretching out for so long, it's unbearable

Somebody help, it's getting worse
I'm begging for assistance, as I'm struggling to cope alone

What do you do with a broken heart?
I don't know how to repair my aching heart and move on

Once the light fades, everything is dark
When the future seems bleak, the present feels empty and dark

Way too much whiskey in my blood
I'm self-medicating to try and ease the pain

I feel my body giving up
My physical and emotional strength is wearing thin

Can I hold on for another night?
I'm struggling to keep going, even one day at a time

What do I do with all this time? Yeah
I feel lost and unsure what to do with my life or time, now that I'm alone

Heavy thoughts when it gets late
My mind becomes weighed down and unsteady, especially at nighttime

Put me in a fragile state
I feel vulnerable and weak, like I could shatter at any moment

I wish I wasn't going home
I dread being alone with my thoughts and feelings

I'm praying but it's not enough
I'm trying to find comfort or guidance somehow, but it's not coming

I'm done, I don't believe in love
I've lost faith in love and relationships

Learning how to let it go
I'm trying to move on and release my hold on the past

I drive circles under street lights
I'm restless and aimless, driving to escape my thoughts

Nothing seems to clear my mind
I can't find a way to disperse my worries or anxieties

I can't forget
The memory of what caused me pain lingers in my mind

Get this out my head
I want to forget, but I can't seem to shake these thoughts

So I drive, chasing Malibu nights
I seek refuge in the moments that seem idyllic or nostalgic, hoping for a change of mood

Nothing seems to heal my mind
I can't find peace or a way to escape my troubles

Hey, hey, na-na, oh yeah
A repeated refrain indicating my emotional turmoil and search for relief
