There's something on my mind tonight
I always hated long goodbyes, they're just a waste of time
And I've been choking on the smoke as it circles around my lungs
And every breath I take or mood I fake is a reminder that I'm numb

'Cause I'm feeling like I've lost control and I can't understand

I'm dead, 'cause I want a different life and oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh yeah, I've been climbing the walls tonight

There's something in my head, can't escape it
I'm paralysed with dreams that I will never make it out alive
And Friday lights are dangerous, an escape from your routine
And maybe there's a place for us that doesn't take away everything

'Cause I'm feeling like I've lost control and I can't understand
'Cause maybe there's no answers for the questions that I have

I'm dead, 'cause I want a different life and oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh yeah, I've been climbing the walls tonight, wow-oh
I'm dead, 'cause I want a different life and oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh yeah, I've been climbing the walls tonight

'Cause I've been burning on and on
The wheels keep turning on and on
And I've been broken on and off
The bars' still open, cut me off
Suffocating, black me out
My entertainment's passing out
And I've been waiting on and on
The time keeps dragging on and on and on

'Cause I've been waiting so long
For a different life

'Cause I'm feeling like I've lost control and I can't understand

I'm dead, 'cause I want a different life and oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh yeah, I've been climbing the walls tonight, wow-oh
I'm dead, 'cause I want a different life and oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh yeah, I've been climbing the walls tonight

It goes on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on, hey
