Unity
VRSTY Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every day I lose another part of me
I'm wide awake and I can see inside of me
Tears fall, but mine are running from my face
I wanna leave, but I'm afraid to try to run away

Seconds pass, an hour's here, but it won't last
Time's slipping away and I only have myself to blame
Tear me down and lock me away, I'm a danger to myself
Why can't you see that you were the only good in me?
My mind is racing into different directions
The pressure's breaking me down
I try to scream, but I can't make a sound, no, no
Pick me up, pick me up (Pick me up, pick me up)
Don't let me hit the ground
I've got a feeling that the world won't save me now
You were the only good in me (The good in me)

We held it all but all but a moment in time
Just a few steps away from the line
Jump with me, baby, I swear we'll be fine
I cannot lose with you here by my side, it's true
I left the biggest piece of me with you

I'm imperfect, and nervous and harder to place
But my heart is as fragile as I seem to be
When you move, when you speak, I feel everything
It's the green in your eyes that brings me back to sleep

In my dreams, you tell me the things that I need
But when I'm awake, I don't know what I should believe
Don't let your voice become my dial tone
While I spend my fucking life alone
Stay with me
I don't care, just lie to me, it's all just make-believe
But I forgot how to pretend and this pain has me irrelevant

I fall to pieces and it all feels the same
I'd spend a lifetime trying to forget your name
Label it love, say it's heavy, but it's innocent
You'll lose yourself in the moment
I've got a feeling that somehow I'm gonna let you down

We held it all but all but a moment in time
Just a few steps away from the line
Jump with me, baby, I swear we'll be fine
I cannot lose with you here by my side, it's true
I left the biggest piece of me with you

In my dreams, you tell me the things that I need
But when I'm awake, I don't know what I should believe
Don't let your voice become my dial tone
While I spend my fucking life alone
Stay with me
I don't care, just lie to me, it's all just make-believe
But I forgot how to pretend and this pain has me irrelevant

We tried to save what's left of this
But you gave up on me and left me in the darkness
I'm crying, denying the failure that I am
Before my heart goes out, you should know that
I just wanna be your superman
Your superman, your superman
Your superman, your superman
Oh, oh, oh




Before my heart goes out, you should know that
I just wanna be yours

Intro: Joey Varela]
Every day I lose another part of me
I'm wide awake and I can see inside of me
Tears fall, but mine are running from my face
I wanna leave, but I'm afraid to try to run away

[Verse 1: Joey Varela; Javy Dorrejo]

Derrick Nipple

I'm going back and listening to some of your older music that I haven't heard yet, and I came across this song. I can't even begin to describe how close to home this song hits. My wife and I separated a year ago, and this song resonates all the way down to my core. I feel the depth of this song more anyone ever should 🥺

VRSTY

Ayy glad you’re enjoying this one. It’s one of my favorites tbh
