Hollyn's song 'Might as Well' captures the struggle of feeling overwhelmed and suffocated by life's pressures, yet it carries a quiet message of surrender and resilience. The lyrics describe a sense of being trapped and faking strength, but also a realization that fighting the inevitable is futile. Instead, the song suggests embracing the crashing waves and letting them shape you. It's a reflective piece about finding peace in letting go and trusting the process, with an underlying spiritual undertone of faith and hope.

Closed my eyes for what was next
I didn't wanna let my chest
Touch yours
Too painful for more
Ivy seeping through doors
Just like how it was before
Feels close
Like I'm about to choke
I wish I wasn't faking
Right now I'm suffocating
I can't breathe
(But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that)
I know it's overrated
Right now it's complicated
I wish you would just
Put your money
Where your mouth is
No escaping
If you're stressin'
You can't stop this
Wave from crashing
So you might as well
Just ride it
Ride it
So you might as well just
So you might as well just
So you might as well just ride it, ride it
Thought these walls were pretty safe
Doesn't matter either way
That voice
Echo's in my choice
Wishing I could get away
Looking back to brighter days
When joy
Cancelled out the noise
I wish I wasn't faking
Right now I'm suffocating
I can't breathe
(But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that)
I know it's overrated
Right now it's complicated
I wish I wasn't faking
Right now I'm suffocating
I can't breathe
(But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that)
I know it's overrated
Right now it's complicated
I wish you would just
Put your money
Where your mouth is
No escaping
If you're stressin'
You can't stop this
Wave from crashing
So you might as well
Just ride it
Ride it
Crashin' is what made me
What shaped me
Maybe I should just let it take me
Crashin' is what made me
What shaped me
Maybe I should just let it take me
Take me away
I wish I wasn't faking
Right now I'm suffocating
I can't breathe
(But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that)
I know it's overrated
Right now it's complicated
I wish you would just
Put your money
Where your mouth is
No escaping
If you're stressin'
You can't stop this
Wave from crashing
So you might as well
Just ride it
Ride it
So you might as well just
So you might as well just
So you might as well just ride it, ride it
So you might as well just
So you might as well just
So you might as well just ride it, ride it
