Em Jane - 11:11 Lyrics

Switch on all the lights
This darkness is no way to live
If we can make it through one night
Why reset the counter and do it again?
You cried out through the space
I dreamed I heard you calling my name
It felt so right to run outside
To face the shock of remembering again

But I can't just exist like this
Pretending it's alright
Breathe deep behind cracked ribs
Tearing my lungs apart

It's burning in my veins
But suffocating my every instinct
Has never kept me safe
Been thinking in words not sentences
But I'm coming back down
From where I floated above my body
Screaming at my broken bones
To do something before it's too late

But I can't just exist like this
Pretending it's alright
Breathe deep behind cracked ribs
Tearing my lungs apart

A part of me will always wonder
Why I always come out feeling small
So easy to slip back under
When everything's wrong

This is no way to live
You cried out for me
But it's too late

But I can't just exist like this
Pretending it's alright
Breathe deep behind cracked ribs
Tearing my lungs apart
