Sustain Lyrics

I've been close to letting go

And saying fuck it, I'm done

My mind, unkind, no longer home

And I don't know where to run

I am crying out for help

Cause I no longer know myself

And it's terrifying

Don't have energy to rise

I wanna sleep, I close my eyes

And I

I can feel my body getting tired

So I will rest but when I wake

I'll start every day by rekindling my fire

The flame can drift but I refuse to let it die

I have so much to give and it requires my light

Though my world feels dark, I take one step at a time

I let myself go and so I can find

Inner peace

It's the means to sustain

Inner peace

It's the means to sustain

Things are slow, but there's a glow I haven't seen in years

I say my prayers, set my intentions, hold my loved ones near

And it's days when I still can't get out of bed

And it's terrifying

When the voices in my head start to scream

I swear it's paralyzing

And I

I can feel my body getting tired

So I will rest but when I wake

I'll start every day by rekindling my fire

The flame can drift but I refuse to let it die

I have so much to give and it requires my light

Though my world feels dark, I take one step at a time

I let myself go and so I can find

Inner peace

It's the means to sustain

Inner peace

It's the means to sustain

Where would I be if my fire went out

And who would I leave behind

What can I do to know why I am here

And, God, how do I stay alive

They said inner peace

It's the means to sustain

You don't have to search for it

Because it's innate
