Backbone (It's Not Over)

[Verse 1]

I need a backbone

Wanna remind myself that I can dig out of this hole

I need a way home

Do what I do, but I don't wanna have to do it alone

I need to stay awake so I can take all the time that I need

I need a backbone

I need a backbone

[Chorus]

'Cause I know that when I break, I'll go deeper

I won't scream and I won't whisper

Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower

'Cause when I crack, it's not over

Can't shut down, I stay open

Twenty-four hours for one moment

Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower

'Cause when I crack, it's not over

[Verse 2]

I'm on the defensе

Tryin' to save myself from going straight out of my mind

Don't know what hell is

But if I did, I'd probably know half thе people in line

I had to will myself to pass the test

And prove that I'm not too broken to let go

I need a backbone

[Chorus]

When I break, I'll go deeper

I won't scream and I won't whisper

Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower

'Cause when I crack, it's not over

Can't shut down, I stay open

Twenty-four hours for one moment

Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower

'Cause when I crack, it's not over

[Bridge]

I'm so hard on myself 'cause I'm too afraid to fail

Keep my heart on a shelf 'til I'm capable of bending

I'm so hard on myself 'cause I'm too afraid to fail

Keep my heart on a shelf 'til I'm capable of bending

'Cause I know that

'Cause I know that (One, two, three)

[Chorus]

'Cause I know that when I break, I'll go deeper

I won't scream and I won't whisper

Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower

'Cause when I crack, it's not over

Can't shut down, I stay open

Twenty-four hours for one moment

Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower

'Cause when I crack, it's not over

When I break, I'll go deeper (It's not over)

I won't scream and I won't whisper (It's not over)

Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower

'Cause when I crack, it's not over
