In the shadows before dawn
In the rain and the fog
I pour out my woes
On this paper all night long
Beneath these tired eyes
Underneath the disguise
There's someone who's got some nights
Where his pain just can't hide
They ask how I'm doin'
I tell em' I'm great
But my mind is stained
I gotta lie so they ain't concerned
Cuz feelin' like a burden gon' hurt
On Instagram, the fake comments
Say they there for you, but let's be honest
You know they'll just ghost you the next day
So if you trippin' like that, don't ever say
(James, you ain't feelin' okay
You need some girls, or a shot with pot, it'll feel great)
Zip it, don't inject me with nothin', ya whole life a fake
Don't want ya blood on my tie if we run fades
We're digital natives, the web is depressed
The doctors gon' pile up all them all of them meds
Swimmin' through dread, not
All the followers gonna be friends
They said
(Life gonna change, yeah, you'll get stronger)
But the air don't feel right, the wind just blows harder
There's probably hope for a wretch like me
But tonight that light goes unseen
In the shadows before dawn
In the rain and the fog
I pour out my woes
On this paper all night long
Beneath these tired eyes
Underneath the disguise
There's someone who's got some nights
Where his pain just can't hide
My soul cries out
Am I alone in this pain
And as for my struggles
Am I the one to blame
There's somebody
Thought about her everyday, all the time
The girl of my dreams, always blew my mind
Every few days, she'd pass by, I say hi
But she suddenly vanished
What the hell happened, I panic so frantic
Can't reach her, just radio static
Her absence, it burns me like acid, cuz I had this passion
I'm trapped in this madness
But most people have it worse than I have
I had friends try to end it all, still not over that
Thinkin' bout my life, and the times it got tragic
Watched so many loved ones end up in a casket
In the shadows before dawn
In the rain and the fog
I pour out my woes
On this paper all night long
Beneath these tired eyes
Underneath the disguise
There's someone who's got some nights
Where his pain just can't hide
Lafayette psychos, see where ya end up
Told me I was nothin', now ya switch up
Don't be takin' photos of me
For the Snapchats
Mock me in the shadows
But ya don't got the nerve to
Say my name, it's James Gay
All of you orange clowns, get out the way
I watch the sun arrive
The stars fade with the night
Birds chirpin' in the breeze
I open up these eyes
Things start to feel alright
Not every night's gonna be as dark as tonight
