a cure for minds unwell

Lewis Capaldi

Waking up too early
Static on the TV
Dressed in all the clothes I had on
When yesterday decided
I didn t need to fight with the hours
and the seconds no more
Doing all the things that I m supposed to
Working everyday the way that most do
Smiling while I m hiding what I m going through
But you know, you know, you know

That if I m being honest
I couldn t tell you this is all I wanted
I struggle sleeping
?cause the house feels haunted
Filled with the shadows of regret
And the things I should have said
To the ones I laid to rest
And lately, I m terrified
that all my youth is fading
Man, growing old is so excruciating
Is there a cure for minds unwell
Cause my heads a living hell
If I m honest with myself

Stumble as I m leaving
One foot takes the lead
Second seems to struggle to find
A solitary reason to continue seeking
Any use in walking this line

Doing all the things that I m supposed to
Working every day the way that most do
Smiling while I m hiding what I m going through
But you know, you know, you know

That if I m being honest
I couldn t tell you this is all I wanted
I struggle sleeping
cause the house feels haunted
Filled with the shadows of regret
And the things I should have said
To the ones I laid to rest
And lately, I m terrified
that all my youth is fading
Man growing old is so excruciating
Is there a cure for minds unwell
Cause my heads a living hell
If I m honest with myself
So how am I supposed to see an end
To my all consuming constant fear and dread
When I can t even seem to make it out of bed

Yeah if I m being honest
I couldn t tell you this is all I wanted
I struggle sleeping
cause the house feels haunted
Filled with the shadows of regret
And the things I should have said
To the ones I laid to rest
And lately, I m terrified
that all my youth is fading
Man growing old is so excruciating
Is there a cure for minds unwell
Cause my heads a living hell
If I m honest with myself
