Lately I've been starting to feel like I'm burned out.
Like everyone around me has moved on and moved out and left me behind
With all these missed opportunities and I can't hide the way I feel
Like I'm coasting through days without meaning.
Like the last two years haven't passed me by with nothing to show
But all these scars that I hide and the smile I bear.
But I get this feeling when I wake that I can't seem to shake
And I've been struggling to get to the next day.
Just maybe you'll save me before it's too late.
Just maybe you'll show me what it's like to feel alive.
I've been finding it so hard to start over.
Just maybe you'll save me before it's too late.
Coz I'm fading fast.
I'm drowning in self-doubt and it feels like a test.
It shouldn't be like this.
So take me back to those times we had
And maybe then I'll stop hoping for better days.
Just maybe you'll save me before it's too late.
Just maybe you'll show me what it's like to feel alive.
I've been finding it so hard to start over.
Just maybe you'll save me before it's too late.
