Comfortable Ache

Once again in a familiar place
 This is all such a comfortable ache
 I've been pushed
 I've been pressed
 'Til I had nothing left
 I've been beat
 I've been stretched
 But I still did my best
 Don't tell me to hurry up and wait
 When everything has an expiration date
 I've been pushed
 I've been pressed
 'Til I had nothing left
 I've been beat
 I've been stretched
 But I still did my best
 So much left to say
 The things I've bottled
 I'll get off my plate
 Light shines the brightest in the dark
 Breaking the silence and leaving our mark
 So sick of being alone
 Tired of feeling so low
 And I'll never give up on hope
 I've been torn
 I've been stressed
 But I climbed step by step
 In a mess of regrets
 I still passed all my tests
 Don't tell me to hurry up and wait
 When everything has an expiration date
 I've been pushed
 I've been pressed
 'Til I had nothing left
 I've been beat
 I've been stretched
 But I still did my best
 Light shines the brightest in the dark
 Breaking the silence
 And leaving our mark
 So sick of being alone
 Tired of feeling so low
 And I'll never give up on hope
 How can I repay the price they paid?
 I've fallen short but I'll keep my faith
 So sick of being alone, tired of feeling so low
 And I'll never give up on hope
 I cannot seem to just let things go
 I try to hide it
 But it all still shows
 These insecurities of mine
 Self doubt
 And an overthinking mind
 All keep me wide awake at night
 But I know that I will be just fine
 Light shines the brightest in the dark
 Breaking the silence
 And leaving our mark
 So sick of being alone
 Tired of feeling so low
 And I'll never give up on hope
 How can I repay the price they paid?
 I've fallen short but I'll keep my faith
 So sick of being alone, tired of feeling so low
 And I'll never give up on hope
