"Heat" lyrics

"Heat"

Lying awake, 2am
Shutting off my mind is hell again
This way of life that I defend
Carries all through the night

As the sun creeps in my eyes
And a new day is primed to materialize
I tend to drift, to fantasize
Somewhere out of sight

Cause all I feel is heat
From stressing on repeat
My body says retreat
But I got to keep fighting

Does she see, does she care
I know she doesn't have much time to spare
And if I lay my troubles bare
Will she turn away?

Making sense of discontent
Chasing dreams that once were here but went
The way I view my world is bent
All out of shape

Cause all I feel is heat
From stressing on repeat
My body says retreat
But I got to keep fighting

I know this won't last forever
I get that I'm not alone
Burning and watching the embers
As they glow

I feel the heat

Cause all I feel is heat
From stressing on repeat
My body says retreat
But I got to keep fighting
Fighting

Cause all I feel the heat
From stressing on repeat
I wish I could retreat
But I have to keep fighting

I feel the heat
I feel the heat
My body says retreat
I have to keep fighting
Fighting
