Lyrics Backbone (It's Not over) - morgxn

I need a backbone
Wanna remind myself that I can dig out of this hole
I need a way home
Do what I do but I don't wanna have to do it alone
I need to stay awake so I can take all the time that I need
I need a backbone
I need a backbone

'Cause I know that when I break I'll go deeper, I won't scream and I won't whisper
Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower 'cause when I crack it's not over
Can't shut down, I stay open 24 hours for one moment
Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower 'cause when I crack it's not over

I'm on the defense, trying to save myself from going straight out of my mind
Don't know what hell is
But if I did, I'd probably know half the people in line
I had to will myself to pass the test and prove that I'm not too broken to let go
I need a backbone

When I break I'll go deeper, I won't scream and I won't whisper
Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower 'cause when I crack it's not over
Can't shut down, I stay open 24 hours for one moment
Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower 'cause when I crack it's not over

I'm so hard on myself 'cause I'm too afraid to fail
Keep my heart on a shelf 'til I'm capable of bending
I'm so hard on myself 'cause I'm too afraid to fail
Keep my heart on a shelf 'til I'm capable of bending
'Cause I know that
'Cause I know that

'Cause I know that when I break I'll go deeper, I won't scream, I won't whisper
Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower 'cause when I crack it's not over
Can't shut down, I stay open 24 hours for one moment
Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower 'cause when I crack it's not over

When I break I'll go deeper (it's not over) I won't scream and I won't whisper (it's not over)
Breathe in deep, heartbeat slower 'cause when I crack it's not over
