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
