III

A new day

But nothing's new

Feet draggin

Like they're made of glue

Tryin

But can't find my way through

Smilin' on cue

Like I always do

I'm miles away

Standin' next to you

Keepin' it together

Actin' fine

Actin' smooth

'Til that quiet sets in

Then it's nothin' but blue


I'm still here

But already long gone

Chained by the past

And can't move on

I'm smilin' and talkin

But no one's home

Yeah

I'm still here

But already gone

Oh yeah

I'm already gone


Tellin' myself

Don't trust the thoughts

But the truth is

They're all I got

Tryna fight back

But I already lost

Swearin' I'm okay

But I'm not

Tryna run

From my demons

But I'm caught

Buyin' that same lie

My heart already bought

Reachin' for that bottle

But hatin

What it brought

One moment of quiet

And I'm worse

Than I thought


I'm still here

But already long gone

Chained by the past

And can't move on

I'm smilin' and talkin

But no one's home

Yeah

I'm still here

But already gone

Oh yeah

I'm already gone


That bottle

Don't bring joy

But it helps for a while

Then it hands back my life

With a slice of denial

I'm sick of borrowin

This peace

I gotta repay

It never really fixes nothin

Just moves the hurt

To another day


I'm still here

But already long gone

Chained by the past

And can't move on

I'm smilin' and talkin

But no one's home

Yeah

I'm still here

But already gone

Oh yeah

I'm already gone
