lyrics

I’m so tired but i can’t sleep
I toss and turn, i hurt my feet
The last few days have felt like weeks
The same days and the same routine
The grin between my teeth
The blackout after the scene

Maybe i’ll just end up in smoke
Maybe i’ll run and go for broke
Fingers burn, shoulder grows weak
The worst part is i’m not unique
All my friends are just as bleak
With a darkness i couldn’t see
And it’s way too scary

Locked in our own house
The quicksand got to me
Didn’t notice it got hard to breathe
Full of emptiness
And days that feel heavy
Did you notice i forgot to breathe?

We’re all messed up in our own ways
Just trying to make it through each day
Wondering how things might’ve been
Looking to find the in-between
Panic attacks in the bathroom
Awkward “parties” via zoom
Man It’s just too creepy

Locked in our own house
The quicksand got to me
Didn’t notice it got hard to breathe
Full of emptiness
And days that feel heavy
Did you notice i forgot to breathe?

And when I’ll be back
Will you be angry?
You keep seeing the worst of me.
Some days are still black but
I can feel the breeze
It kinda helped me breathe

But it’s still too scary
Locked in our own house
The quicksand got to me
Didn’t notice it got hard to breathe
Full of emptiness
And days that feel heavy
Did you notice i forgot to breathe?

Did you notice that I forgot to breathe?
Did you notice that days feel heavy?

3 des 4 membres de Blurry Eyes ( Mathieu, Beaudet et Louis ) ont eu des dreads à la même époque.
Karl ( drums ) joue dans 50% des bands au Québec, mais ce ne sont pas les mêmes 50% que Vince Peake. Ensemble, ils jouent dans 100% des groupes d’ici.
Louis ( guitare et voix ) est un champion de Pac Man et il demande toujours du poivre lorsqu’il commande au restaurant. ... more
