[Intro]
Ayy
[Verse 1]
I walk alone down the city streets, hoody up
Hands in jacket pockets, Sydney winter ain't this cold very often
Everybody still sound asleep, except me
Lone wolf in the moonlight, pair of beats
With the soundtrack for me to escape to
Lone wanderer, pondering if I'm ever gonna breakthrough
If I saw a Doctor, he probably tell me take two
Of these in the morning but Johnie's a decent performer
You'll never see what's behind blue eyes
Unless I let you, poker face, my disguise
And I stay strong for many, but sometimes when the loads this heavy, you can't help but wanna leave this life
Black dog claimed many, he ain't ever gonna get me
Ain't weak to speak, so don't mind me if I'm venting
Even the happiest of souls have their dark days too
But when it's grey here, I know the sky stays blue
Above the clouds
[Chorus]
I know you wanna escape
But right here is the only place for you my love
Don't give it away
We want you to stay right here with us
I know right now it don't seem
That you could do another day
But I'ma be right here
I promise that I'll stay
[Verse 2]
I bet you never realised that I hurt like you
Some of us handle it different, but it gets us too
Some of us holding the bottle, self-medicating medicine
While others panic attack, anxiety, on the Ventalin
People often surprised that I smile this big?
'Cause mum tried to O.D when I was five or six?
Or Dad left? Big deal, I'm blessed, I still have both parents
Granted my parents never had a real good marriage
Ayy, but it is what it is
And I have to accept that I might feel like this
Sometimes I don't try to numb, I just try to overcome
And every time I dealt with what I felt, well then I always won
I'm dealing with it ASAP from here on out
Instead of living in the dark, I'm in a lighthouse now
Please shine a little light for all your family and friends
'Cause the kindness you send could pull em right off the edge
I'm saying
[Bridge]
This life is enough
This life is the one
The one where you become
All that you become
At times it seems frozen
It's forever stagnant
But then you realise right here right now
It's only a fragment, saying
[Chorus (Extended)]
I know you wanna escape
But right here is the only place for you my love
Don't give it away
We want you to stay right here with us
I know right now it don't seem
That you could do another day
But I'ma be right here
I promise that I'll stay
I know you wanna escape
But right here is the only place for you my love
Don't give it away
We want you to stay right here with us
I know right now it don't seem
That you could do another day
But I'ma be right here
I promise that I'll stay
[Outro]
I know you wanna escape
But right here is the only place for you my love
Don't give it away
We want you to stay right here with us
I know right now it don't seem
That you can do another day
But I'ma be right here
I promise that I'll stay
Please stay
