I wake up slow and fill my cup
Just caffeine holding me up
I check my phone, then stare at the wall
Don't really think, don't feel at all
I keep moving, there's nothing new
Just killing time until I'm through
I go through my days, nod and smile
But haven't felt a thing in a while
What happened to me?

They carve me out piece by piece
So I held it down, let no one know
I gave them all they'd want from me
And disappeared gradually
I scroll through photos from long ago
But I don't recognize the one I know
Gave and gave until I'm broke
Now I drift like disappearing smoke
What happened to me?

They carve me piece by piece
I continue disappearing quietly
I talk like someone else entirely
What's left isn't really me
I've thought about leaving this behind
I want myself back, but at what cost?
What if I'm better off being lost?
What happened to me?

Each day I lose a little more
I'm here, but not like before
Someone who doesn't speak my mind
I left myself so far behind
