about

“I constantly have that feeling that makes me think I'm not good enough” – “Enough” is about the end of a relationship. It was the first time I really struggled with anxiety. I've always been anxious, but I think that's the first time I really understood what suffering with anxiety meant.

“My lungs refuse to inhale new oxygen” - During the day, I used to find myself holding my breath, trying to fight the pain. It goes without saying, that was completely useless. It was, in some ways, a sort of tic I developed these past few years. Doing this all day long made my lungs and stomach numb due to the constant contractions.

“When I refused to heal my wounds you dig your nails into me” - During this difficult time, the person who left wasn't of any help. To me, she seemed completely disinterested in what my conditions were. That was the thing that, after all those years, hurt me the most.

“After all these years do you still love me?”

- Simone

lyrics

I'm constantly having that feeling that makes me think I'm not good enough
I can't feel my heartbeat, when did it stop beating?
And my lungs refuse to inhale new oxygen
Am I better off dead? Or will life bring me joy?

Every morning I struggle to find the strenght to make it through the day
But sometimes I let myself be overwhelmed and I give up

Do I deserve this pain, for what I've done?
Now that you sleep with someone else in the bed where I gave you my heart
Am I better off dead? Am I better off dead?
I lost you but I lost myself too
When I refused to heal my wounds
You digged your nails into me

Do I deserve this pain, for what I've done?
Now that you sleep with someone else in the bed where I gave you my heart

For two years I pretended to find myself in someone else
For two years I hoped to find a way to forgive
But I still haunt you in my sleep
Bury me or let me sleep to death
‘cause I can't handle this no more
I'm so sick of sleeping on the floor

After all these years do you still love me?
Do I deserve this pain, for what I've done?
Now that you sleep with someone else in the bed where I gave you my heart
Do I deserve this pain, for what I've done?
Now that you sleep with someone else in the bed where I gave you my rotten love
