Midnight Trees

I've been doing my best lately
To not be at my worst again
I watch my future
Disappear from behind my eyes
I'm too fatigued to put up a fight

I need to keep up with all of you
You drink then I'll try it too
Anything to feel like I'm alive
Commitments are ruthless
The pain is so immense
So what do I do, what do I do
I crawl to you again

If its alright, I'm not alright
And I might need you
To hold me together
Oh, I wish I was a better friend
But tonight, something's not right
Can you hold me tight
Until your heart warms up mine
Mine, mine

Twelve kids at the park being unwise
They're laughing, and flirting
And right then, I realise
I want nothing more than to have those
Mundane luxuries
Can't drown it out, I go lie down
Amongst the midnight trees

But you come and sit with me
And we protest that it's not fair
Our faces and shirts soaked
Our hearts empty
That night, for the first time
I didn't die in my dreams
Thank god I wasn't seen

If it's alright, I'm not alright
And I might need you
To hold me together
Oh, I wish I was a better friend
But tonight, something's not right
Can you hold me tight
Until your heart warms up mine
Mine, mine, mine
