Don't
Wales Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Late nights, I stay awake, never sleeping, reflecting off my bad days
Overthinking is an evil that I can't escape
No one ever hits me up to ask if I'm okay
So I just toss and turn and deal with my depression
Live or die, I don't know which direction
Lost myself, no longer feel connected, for me this life's a curse and not a blessing
What did I do wrong in life and why I gotta fight this fight
And why I feel like everybody always having a good time, while I can't sleep at night
I think its time I go, I'm sorry to the people that I left back home
I truly wish I could travel another road
My life's long gone, ima tie this rope
Dear family, this is my final goodbye
I never meant to hurt you, but I had to end my life
So if you're reading this letter, just know I am alright
I'm in a better place now, its a beautiful sight
I couldn't take it no more, I couldn't take all the wars
Body depleted, I was weak, I couldn't stand me no more
Fighting these demons everyday, I never opened my door
Frightened and screaming, haunted dreams when I wake up, there's more
These pills wouldn't help so I just drank and drank
Drowned my body with liquor to avoid the pain
I cried out for help, but now its to late
I cried out, I yelled, but hey, its okay
I just want you to know, whatever happens, always know you're never alone
I'll be by your side, no matter where you go, its just my time to let go
And I
Can't take all the suffering
Come and give me a hand
Before I call an end to my life
Don't know if I'm sorry
For the pain that I'll cause
I'm just over it all
(Don't let go)
Take a look at those who love you and know we'll always love you
(Don't let go)
We need you more than ever, those demons should know better
Than to mess with the mind of such a powerful soul
I thought I should let you know
We're always here to hold you close
Just promise us you won't let go
(Yeah) Yo this ain't a coincidence, if you're hearing this now, just know this song is heaven sent
The power in your thoughts are clear and evident
If you look at yourself, just know the mirror is evidence
That you have a purpose, I know it ain't perfect
You can't give up based off struggles and burdens
The evil is burning, don't hop in the furnace
The power in you is a light that can be burnt in
And where do I begin, if you don't feel loved than you need new friends
Cause the real ones stay and see the hurt from within
Let the fake ones go, bodies heal in the end (yeah)
I'll hold you close at night, don't let go just fight
Only love and light, no more pain in sight, no bad dreams, alright?
You are strong and bright, don't let go tonight
I'm worried sick about you
Every single night I stay up, thinking 'bout each and everyone of your moves
You say nobody loves you, that you have no purpose in life
But see the bigger picture, know that you mean so much in mine
And I don't know what id do if I lost you
Especially if it was cause of something you caused, too
You said you'd care for friends and family, is that true?
So than why would you want you precious life to end soon
Take your time to speak your mind, it's okay, we'll be here to listen to you closely
Don't do anything stupid
Something that you just might regret
You've got so much ahead of you, now know that your time isn't over yet (no)
Can't take all the suffering
Come and give me a hand
Before I call an end to my life
Don't know if I'm sorry
For the pain that I'll cause
I'm just over it all
(Don't let go)
Take a look at those who love you and know we'll always love you
(Don't let go)
We need you more than ever, those demons should know better
Than to mess with the mind of such a powerful soul
I thought I should let you know
We're always here to hold you close
Just promise us you won't let go
Can't take all the suffering
Come and give me a hand
Before I call an end to my life
Don't know if I'm sorry
For the pain that I'll cause
I'm just over it all
The scars on my body remind me
Of every word you said to hurt me
Of every time you laughed while I cried, so I cut till I'm numb and watch my arm bleed
The scars on my body remind me
That I'm weak, at times I can't speak




That I'm weak, I'm trapped, I'm not free
The scars on my body remind me
