"hold me while i die" february 22ish 2022 (partial credit to reputaylorsversion )(TW for suicidal ideation)

verse 1
you're the only reason i'm still holding on
but i've been walking this road too long
and everything i do turns out wrong
maybe everybody was right all along

pre-chorus
you see me for me
and you're the only one
who knows what's underneath

chorus
so hold me while i die
because i don't want to try
hold me while i die
it's hard keeping things inside
and i know that i'm never ever gonna make it
and i'm just sick and tired of always tryna fake it
so hold me while i die
it's too much this time

verse 2
everyone's your friend till shit goes down
they'll laugh with you and then they'll try to take your crown
i was always lost in it, i never got found
and after all these years i got used to that sound

pre-chorus
of people talking bout shit they don't know
but you turned all my bluest nights into gold

chorus
so hold me while i die
because i don't want to try
hold me while i die
it's hard keeping things inside
and i know that i'm never ever gonna make it
and i'm just sick and tired of always tryna fake it
so hold me while i die
it's too much this time

bridge
after all those parties i went home at night
went to bed early so i'd catch that flight
and everything i did was what those guys
in the news and on the internet thought was right
and i just wanted to do what everyone wanted
and i just wanted to make them feel something
but in the process i lost myself
i'm too far gone for help

verse 3
that night may 3rd 10:30 at midtown
ordered bread and water
the next week people tore me down
"she's boring" they slaughtered
no one ever asks you how you are and if you're really fine
no one really cares what's going on in your life

chorus
so hold me while i die
because i don't want to try
hold me while i die
it's hard keeping things inside
and i know that i'm never ever gonna make it
and i'm just sick and tired of always tryna fake it
so hold me while i die
it's too much this time
