Hanging on by a Thread Lyrics by Gracchus

2021

[Verse 1]
I don't know
What is wrong with me
Can you help 'cause honestly
I'm at the end of my wits
At the end of my rope
At the end of my slope
I don't know
I just don't know where I went wrong
Why couldn't I stop when I had the time
Why did I go on when I felt there's space
For someone like me
Someone like us
[Verse 2]
Someone who wants to be what everyone dreams to see
I'm just not that
And at this point
It's really hard to believe what I wished to be real
Would ever be more than a common dream
I'm barely hanging on by a thread
I'm merely hanging on with regrets
I could've steered away
Could've driven off and find another way
Find another cliff
[Refrain]
Find another cliff
Find another cliff
Find another cliff
Find another cliff
[Chorus]
Hanging on by a thread
Living with regret
Hanging on by a thread
Hanging on by a thread
Living with regret
Hanging on by a thread
[Verse 3]
I dragged down so many lives
So many ways to mess up what I was given
I never really had friends
Rather stayed at home and worked on realizing
What would spawn from me fantasizing
About the time that I will be known
And might have friends
That care about me like I care about them
And might even listen to my music
[Verse 4]
Would be nice to have no fears of what's to come tomorrow
For once not waking up to feel the disappointment
Of feeling how the air's filling my lungs
To see what it is for the world to be a little brighter
Little lighter
Just a little bit more fun for me
Just a little bit more fun
[Refrain]
Find another way
Find another cliff
Find another way
Find another cliff
[Chorus]
Hanging on by a thread
Living with regret
Hanging on by a thread
Find another way
Find another cliff
Hanging on by a thread
Living with regret
Hanging on by a thread
Find another way
Find another cliff
[Verse 5]
I know
What is wrong with me
It's that I chose to hope
For a life that I wanted to be destined for
Convinced I just have to work a little more
Work a little harder
Work a little longer in hope
To get a little bit stronger to cope
With the pressure that I only have this life to conquer
My self-inflicted wound
[Verse 6]
Every dream's another bullet through my brain
And I really love to load that chamber
I was created to fail for as long as
I can't escape my fate
My movie ending's around the corner
I tell myself every time I
Fail to sleep
Fail to breathe
Fail to impress
And again I am just
[Chorus]
Hanging on by a thread
Living with regret
Hanging on by a thread
Find another way
Find another cliff
Find another way
Find another cliff
I'm hanging on by a thread
Living with regret
Hanging on by a thread
Find another way
Find another cliff
Find another way
Find another cliff
Find another way
Find another cliff
Find another way
Find another cliff
Find another way
Find another cliff
