Track 05 · Stage 4 · Depression

Slipping Through My Grip

The emptiness at the top of everything — reaching the summit and finding an empty heart.

Lyrics

(I stopped asking the question...)
(There's nothing left to answer.)

I crossed the line I drew to save me
And felt nothing on the other side

Every finish line keeps moving
Every trophy feels like rust inside

I don't know how to hold the good
Without pulling it apart

I reached the top of everything
And found an empty heart

Why can't I feel the good?
Why does it fade so fast?
It's slipping through my grip
Nothing good was built to last
(Slipping through my grip...)

I won the war I never wanted
And buried everyone I knew

The silence I was running from
Is finally coming through

I don't know how to hold the good
Without pulling it apart

I reached the top of everything
And found an empty heart

Why can't I feel the good?
Why does it fade so fast?
It's slipping through my grip
Nothing good was built to last
(Slipping through my grip...)

I got everything I asked for
And I can't feel a single thing

I got everything I asked for...
And it doesn't mean a thing
