[Indie pop, sad girl pop, introspective pop, melancholy, emotional] [Verse 1] I’ve been here before, same late-night radio, changing stations Fading into dim rooms, replaying all the old frustrations God, I get impatient — if I could pour a stronger courage than the heaviness I hold, If I could quiet down the chaos long enough to not fold, Maybe then I’d sleep, Sleep [Pre-Chorus] But there’s a monster in my head She says the world would be lighter if I slipped out of the frame She says I’m nothing but noise — a candle with a weak flame [Chorus] Lying on the bedroom carpet, whispering, “Please save me” Mom and Dad, if I stay, will you be proud of your child, maybe? Holding on tight only makes it wild — sometimes hope feels like a spill Hey, don’t tempt me now — you know I will [Verse 2] If I walk away I could run toward some other skyline Change my name, my state of mind Call it a brand-new design Mirror, mirror, the glass is fogged — I can’t see my reflection whole I swore I’d healed, but truth is there’s a bruise still blooming in my soul I lied, Lied [Pre-Chorus] ‘Cause there’s a monster in my bed She tells me I add nothing, that the planet would breathe easier She colors every quiet hour like grief is all I carry here [Chorus] Lying on the bedroom carpet, breathe slow, count to ten If I falter on the way down, would anyone catch me then? I had a flash of how it ends if I keep climbing that same hill Hey, don’t tempt me now — you know I will Yeah, don’t tempt me now — you know I will [Bridge] My heartbeat stumbles in the dark — the room is like a trembling, open wound I whisper to the ceiling cracks, hoping they’ll steady me soon Say a prayer, tuck me in; I’ll try to get some rest Though the noises are loud inside my chest [Final Chorus] Lying on the bedroom carpet, I’m learning how to save me If I tremble in the silence, will the world still hold me gently? Holding on hurts, but I’m still here, and maybe that’s a will Hey, don’t tempt me now — I'm trying still Yeah, don’t tempt me now — I’m here, I will
Lyrics
I've been here before, same late-night radio, changing stations
Fading into dim rooms, replaying all the old frustrations
God, I get impatient — if I could pour a stronger courage than the heaviness I hold,
If I could quiet down the chaos long enough to not fold,
Maybe then I'd sleep,
Sleep
But there's a monster in my head
She says the world would be lighter if I slipped out of the frame
She says I'm nothing but noise — a candle with a weak flame
Lying on the bedroom carpet, whispering, “Please save me”
Mom and Dad, if I stay, will you be proud of your child, maybe?
Holding on tight only makes it wild — sometimes hope feels like a spill
Hey, don't tempt me now — you know I will
If I walk away
I could run toward some other skyline
Change my name, my state of mind
Call it a brand-new design
Mirror, mirror, the glass is fogged — I can't see my reflection whole
I swore I'd healed, but truth is there's a bruise still blooming in my soul
I lied,
Lied
'Cause there's a monster in my bed
She tells me I add nothing, that the planet would breathe easier
She colors every quiet hour like grief is all I carry here
Lying on the bedroom carpet, breathe slow, count to ten
If I falter on the way down, would anyone catch me then?
I had a flash of how it ends if I keep climbing that same hill
Hey, don't tempt me now — you know I will
Yeah, don't tempt me now — you know I will
My heartbeat stumbles in the dark — the room is like a trembling, open wound
I whisper to the ceiling cracks, hoping they'll steady me soon
Say a prayer, tuck me in; I'll try to get some rest
Though the noises are loud inside my chest
Lying on the bedroom carpet, I'm learning how to save me
If I tremble in the silence, will the world still hold me gently?
Holding on hurts, but I'm still here, and maybe that's a will
Hey, don't tempt me now — I'm trying still
Yeah, don't tempt me now — I'm here, I will
