lyrics

Will I ever be happy? Look at me now,
I've got it all, I'm still sad somehow.
Always finding a reason to not be enough,
So hard on myself. I've got to be tough.

Hand to mouth,
I am trying,
to break your heart,
make you open.

Will I ever be present? Look at me now,
Lost in the distance, never myself.
Always finding a reason to not be here,
If I'm never around I can't disappear.

Hand to mouth,
I am trying,
To make you smile,
Forget where you are.

Will I ever be equal to all my desires?
All of my storms haven't put out the fires.
Still burning for something I've never seen.
Smoke signals to someone I've never been.

Hand to mouth,
I am trying...
Hand to mouth,
I am trying...
