sirens
Paint By Numbers Lyrics

Well summer's in my head again
I'm feeling nostalgic for a happier time

I've been lying in this bed for days on end
I'm feeling depressed and stuck in a rut

Don't talk to me just let me sleep
I don't want to deal with reality right now

I had that dream this week
I had a nightmare that keeps haunting me

Where everything goes wrong, let me take you there
I'm in a dark place and want to share it with someone else

Trace the patterns and repeat
I feel trapped in a cycle of negativity

I'm left with what was underneath no heart it's useless
I feel emotionally drained and empty

You've heard the song so let's move along
I don't want to dwell on my problems anymore

And everywhere we go
No matter where I turn, I can't escape my turmoil

Everything goes wrong, let me take you there
I want someone to share in my pain and see the world as I do

You won't believe all the colors that dance
Amidst the darkness, I'm able to find moments of beauty and hope

Inside the flame
Despite the danger and risk of getting burned, I'm drawn to the intensity of my emotions

You won't believe how these walls cave in
The weight of my problems is crushing me

Fall down and light me up again
As much as my struggles hurt me, they also fuel my creativity and art

Here's to the holiday and the life that we leave
Let's celebrate the good times and memories we have had

We never got to say goodbye I'm sorry
I regret not being able to properly express my emotions before it was too late

And they will gather around when the sirens ring out
When my life is in danger, people will come together and attempt to help me

The celebration's moved on to a better place
Despite the pain and sadness, there is hope for a better future

If there's something to talk about can it wait
I'm not in the right frame of mind to have a deep conversation right now

I can't talk right now
I need time alone to process my emotions and thoughts

Moving backwards, what happened last year?
I'm struggling to move on from past traumas and mistakes

I can't tell you been wasted for too long
My unhealthy coping mechanisms are preventing me from healing and making progress
