[Intro]

I said I’d only have a few
Once again I’m letting myself down
Surviving off these toxic fumes
I cross the line until I drown (I drown)

[Verse 1]
Desperate for release
Not inclined to get to
it consciously (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Perfection that I seek,
impossible to reach
[Pre-Chorus]
No matter what I choose
I’m so afraid to lose, but to who?
Denial as a shield
Don’t want none of this shit revealed
I keep it sealed

[Chorus]
It’s gone too far now
Will I ever be the same?
The aftertaste is so sour
I’m thе only one to blame (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Verse 2]
The curtains havе been closed for days
I can’t tell if it’s day or night
(Or night)
I’m running out of clever ways (Mm)
To keep faking that I’m fine
Tuck my head under the sheets
Hoping that no one remembers me
(Remembers)
A vain attempt to hide
From the mountain waiting for me outside

[Pre-Chorus]
Relinquishing control
Won’t make me weak, just set me free
The fear of growing old
Never feeling at ease to let it be
[Chorus]
It’s gone too far now
Will I ever be the same? (Oh-oh)
The aftertaste is so sour
I’m the only one to blame (To blame)
It’s gone too far now
I hope it’s not too late (Not too late)
I need a wholesome way out
Is it possible to tame? (Tame, yeah)

[Outro]
It’s gone too far now
Will I ever be the same?
The aftertaste is so sour
I’m the only one to blame
It’s gone too far now
I hope it’s not too late
The aftertaste is so sour
I’m the only one to blame
