Flatline Lyrics by Citizen Soldier

Why should I hold on?
You never see me, when I’m being strong
You’re always long gone
Until the second I do something wrong

Does being loved mean letting go?
Invisible until I code
If I give up, become a ghost
Would you know, would you know, would you know?

Would you believe me if I flatlined? (flatlined?)
Became a body to identify?
Would you see me before my limit? (My limit?)
Or do I have to become a statistic?
Would you believe me when it’s all too late? (Too late?)
Start to listen, when I’m in my grave? (grave?)
‘Cause I’ve been crying, screaming, promise I tried
I don’t think you’ll care ’til I finally flatline (Line, line, line)

(‘Til I finally flatline)

Neglect the real me
‘Cause you’re more comfortable, when I just mask
See what you want to see
Painted pretty over broken glass (Glass)

When I fall, where should I land?
In my bed or a body bag?
Would it kill you, just to give a damn?
‘Cause it kills me, you don’t understand

Would you believe me if I flatlined? (flatlined?)
Became a body to identify?
Would you see me before my limit? (My limit?)
Or do I have to become a statistic?
Would you believe me when it’s all too late? (Too late?)
Start to listen, when I’m in my grave? (grave?)
‘Cause I’ve been crying, screaming, promise I tried
I don’t think you’ll care ’til I finally flatline (Line, line, line)

(‘Til I finally flatline)

Is it gonna take a crisis?
Terrified of what the price is?
I wanna be worth bad things (Bad things)
So what the hell’s wrong with me? (With me?)
Is it gonna take a crisis?
The end of me to cure your blindness?
I wanna be worth bad things (Bad things)
So what the hell’s wrong with me?

Would you believe me if I flatlined?
Became a body to identify?
Would you see me before my limit?
Or do I have to become a statistic?
Would you believe me when it’s all too late? (Too late?)
Start to listen, when I’m in my grave? (grave?)
‘Cause I’ve been crying, screaming, promise I tried (promise I tried)
I don’t think you care ’til I finally flatline (Line, line, line)

(‘Til I finally flatline)

Keep listening
