"Flames" lyrics

"Flames"

I gotta run far
I gotta run far from here
I gotta carry on
My heart beats in a fast speed
And I can't breathe 'cause my fear speaks

My heart beats in a fast speed
And I can't breathe 'cause my fear speaks
So loudly, so clearly
I'm twenty-four and I don't seem to know shit about myself
So much fog in my head, working no end
Some days I wake up and I'd rather be dead
Sadly this is my reality, every day's a challenge
Though I try to show the best of me

My heart beats in a fast speed
And I can't breathe 'cause my fear speaks

I gotta carry on, I've suffered for too long
I have to run far, away from my past
Oh, I gotta hold on to the faith that I have
Maybe someday, I'll be proud what I've done
I've been running through flames
Running, running through flames

My heart beats in a fast speed
And I can't breathe 'cause my fear speaks

I clench my teeth, I stamp my feet
Beating myself up for feeling more than weak
Dissociative behavior
I'm a slave of my past and I hate it

My heart beats in a fast speed
And I can't breathe 'cause my fear speaks

I gotta carry on, I've suffered for too long
I have to run far, away from yesterday
I gotta hold on to the faith that I have
Maybe someday, I'll be proud what I've done
I've been running through flames

Burning up burning up, yo
The flesh down to the bones
But I'm still standing up
Yeah, I'm still standing up
Yeah, I'm still standing up

I've learned so much but these days have been so hard
I've made mistakes but they taught me how to grow
I've been so hard on myself for far too long
I'm still so young, so I gotta carry on
So I gotta carry on

Gotta hold on (Gotta hold on)
To the faith that I have (To the faith that I have)
Maybe someday (Maybe someday)
I'll be proud what I've done
I've been running through flames

So I gotta carry on
Carry on, carry on
