Cliff Notes Lyrics

This isn't war.
This isn't courage.
This isn't how you're supposed to be.
And all the things keeping you awake,
Are leaving me afraid.
This isn't war.
This isn't courage.
And I don't believe that you're okay.
The reason why I forget to close my eyes
When you're next to me.
I feel you're going to leave.

When birthdays are suicide days
And waking up it's hard to stay.
I want to see you when you come down.
So save yourself for me.
I want to see you when you come down.
So save yourself.

The weight of loves forever trying.
And it’s enough to bury me.
All the things keeping you awake
Are leaving finally.

When birthdays are suicide days
And waking up it's hard to stay.
I want to see you when you come down.
So save yourself for me.
I want to see you when you come down.
So save yourself.

Always said the same way I'm okay.
Always walk away in chains.
You know we wish you'd come around
Because nothing's changed,
But it doesn't feel the same.

I want to see you when you come down.
So save yourself for me.
I want to see you when you come down.
So save yourself.

Cover art for Cliff Notes lyrics by Emarosa

"I had a hard time writing this song. Dealing with depression is such an exhausting and punishing struggle. One minute someone can be so happy and on top of the world, only to turn around and feel like they're the only person in it. There's a loneliness, a hopelessness. Sometimes to you need to write to whoever is out there. I don't think depression ever really goes away. It's ironic that this song can sound so happy when ultimately it’s asking someone not to jump." - Bradley
