[Verse 1]
These walls are patched,
like every single scar,
she left for me.
Life moves too fast,
and all the walls I built are,
still surrounding me.

[Chorus]
I hear the water swelling,
right outside of me.
And I wonder if she'll ever come for me.
I don't know if these patches -
can hold back a dam this deep.
And it's been ages -
since I got an unbroken night of sleep,
cuz the waters loud, 
and I'm scared I'll drown,
despite all the friends and family,
right outside of me.

[Verse 2]
These walls are patched,
I've tried like mad to fix,
every single crack that I could reach.
I've tried to wear a smile,
through all my leaks,
but the water's growin' loud,
and I can't breathe.

[Chorus]
I hear the water swelling,
just outside of me.
I wonder if I'll ever feel relief. 
I don't know if these patches -
can hold back a dam this deep.
And it's been ages -
since I got an unbroken night of sleep,
cuz the waters loud, 
and I'm scared I'll drown,
despite all the ones who've left,
cheering for me.

[Bridge]
I look down,
this waters rising,
see it's at my knees.
My waist,
and then I think,
how walkin' out,
of this town,
might be the end of me.

[Outro]
I start to sink,
into this abyss,
and then I blink.
Blink.
Blink.
Blink.
Blink.
Blink.
