TRUSTcompany Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm beneath and crawling out on my knees
I can hear what you said
Echoing in my head
And I'm losing myself
Now I'm cold on the floor
And I don't care anymore
'Cause it's over, it's over
I can feel, I can feel
Like it's real, like it's real
I can feel, I can feel
I can finally feel
So I guess it's over now
And you broke me down somehow
Now I'm faltering
I can see, I can be, I can be that shut you out
I can feel, I can feel
Like it's real, like it's real
I can feel, I can feel
Like it's real, like it's real
So I'm leaving now, somehow
Underneath as I slowly drown, finally
I can hear what you said echoing in my head
And I'm losing myself
I can feel, I can feel
Like it's real, like it's real
I can feel, I can feel
I can finally feel
So I guess it's over now
And you broke me down somehow
Now I'm faltering
I can see, I can be, I can be that shut you out
I can feel, I can feel
Like it's real, like it's real
I'm shaking deep inside
I'm heaving trouble breathing
I need somewhere to hide
Awake â??cause I am healing
I'm heaving trouble breathing
Tomorrow I am healing
So I guess it's over now
And you broke me down somehow
Now I'm faltering
I can see, I can be, I can be that shut you out
I can feel, I can feel
Like it's real, like it's real
I can feel, I can feel
Like it's real, like it's real
