Partial Lyrics:

โ€œHere we stand, precariously
Balanced at the edge of infinity
They left us to suffer but we can save each other
We found a lifeline
in the arms of one another.โ€

โ€œIf we were born self-destructive or with guarded hearts
Weโ€™re healing now by trading keys or breaking in (BREAK IN)
Weโ€™re promising each other that we are not our scars
And our identities arenโ€™t defined by skin.โ€

โ€œIf you ever hear these words, I hope you still recognize my voice
If this song hits the radio, I hope it breaks through the city noise
Whether Iโ€™m screaming up to heaven or to a town a hundred miles away
Iโ€™m just going with the hope that Iโ€™ll see you again one day.

Itโ€™s been a couple hard and empty years
Been called a fool for counting on you coming home
Iโ€™ve found friends but it still hurts without you here
I guess with you gone Iโ€™m always half alone

Iโ€™ve brushed hands with death and nearly reached the end
Took a hit and risked a flatline
But if your heartโ€™s still beating in your chest my friend,
I hope you find your way back here to mine.โ€

โ€œThis isnโ€™t romantic
not beautifully tragic
itโ€™s ugly and painful
itโ€™s so fucking wasteful

Suicide songs
are always too long
for something that cuts so much short.โ€
