[VERSE 1]

I'm the same as them

And I can't see a difference

(I can see it, so what am I missing?)

I'm not the type to stay away

From my brain but hey

Crashing minds collide with thoughts

And why am I so scared of being something I'm not

Or even the thought

Of dealing with it because it's hard

To tell if anyone will listen


[Chorus]

And I'm so scared to be alive

But it's fine

I'll collide

With the thoughts in my mind

(x2)


[VERSE 2]

Everything that I've got

And everything that I'm not

Everything that I've fought to be here

Has taken up a slot in this body of mine

Taking up time, taking up life

But it's fine

I deal with this every single night

Battling my fears

But they still scar

And it might be hard

But this is the best I've felt by far

I'm so at home in my mind

And maybe i just need some time


[BREAKDOWN]

You're not a representation of your own mind

And you're not a tangible feeling for them to understand

You're not something to grasp, something of mine

Because that's way too easy to comprehend

You're not what I want you to be

And trust me, you feel the same

You're not a lover, not a fighter, not a secondhand heart to blame

And I'm sorry they treat you this way

But your mind continues to tear yourself apart

Why do you feel this way?

Why do you feel this way?

Why do you feel this way?


[Chorus X2]
