Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
A hopeless romantic
Self-medicated on reality
A misunderstanding
Is all that anyone can see in me

[Pre-Chorus]
Pulling up the floor to go deeper down
Tearing at the soil to find the ground

[Chorus]
I’m trying to find myself coming back to the same words
To try to tell a different story
I’m farther from myself coming back to the same words
In hope they come alive without me

[Verse 2]
A moment’s reflection
Has given me a second chance to heal
A loss of connection
In matching up my words to how I feel

[Pre-Chorus]
Pulling up the floor to go deeper down
Tearing at the soil to find the ground

[Chorus]
I’m trying to find myself coming back to the same words
To try to tell a different story
I’m farther from myself coming back to the same words
In hope they come alive without me

[Breakdown]
I’ve taken on too much
Empty pages on the floor
Tearing volumes from the shelf
To find what I’ve been looking for
Then it hit me

[Bridge]
Well, I haven’t changed
I’m still the same man I was before
Well, I haven’t changed
I’m still the same man I was

[Chorus 2]
Just trying to find myself coming back to the same words
To try to tell a different story
I’m farther from myself coming back to the same words
In hope they come alive without me

I’m farther from myself coming back to the same words

[Outro]
I’m farther from myself coming back to the same words
I’m trying to find myself coming back to the same words
