[Verse 1]

Something’s in my blood

I keep ending up

On my deathbed (on my deathbed, on my deathbed)

Like a lucid dream

But it’s right in front of me

Stead of in my head (ed, stead of in my he-eh-ead)

And it cuts me like a knife

Taking inches off my life

You know I’m hanging by a thread

It’s not a point of view

There’s nothing I can do

When I’m half-dead (when I'm half-dead, when I'm half-dead)


[Pre]

But you

Keep on showing up in the nick of time

Like you

You can get me through the night


[Chorus]

God you’re so obsessed

Tryna savе me (tryna save me)

On your hеro complex

But you can’t change me (you can't change me)

Take the S off your chest

Cuz I’m losing my mind

With the way you keep trying

Can’t help when it’s helpless

And I’m helpless baby


[Verse 2]

I don’t wanna talk

But if you ever listened

You would know that too

Blah blah blah

Say the same shit

Like you always do

Yeah you tell me I’ll get better

It won’t be like this forever

If only I believed that too

Wish you’d save your breath

Put that shit to rest

Cuz it pointless (pointless)


[Pre]

But you

Keep on showing up in the nick of time

Like you

You can get me through the night


[Chorus]

God you’re so obsessed

Tryna save me (tryna save me)

On your hero complex

But you can’t change me (you can't change me)

Take the S off your chest

Cuz I’m losing my mind

With the way you keep trying

Can’t help when it’s helpless

And I’m helpless baby


[Bridge]

Something’s in my blood

I keep ending up

On my deathbed

Like a lucid dream

But it’s right in front of me

Stead of in my head

Ohhh


[Chorus]

God you’re so obsessed

Tryna save me (tryna save me)

On your hero complex

But you can’t change me (you can't change me)

Take the S off your chest

Cuz I’m losing my mind

With the way you keep trying

Can’t help when it’s helpless

And I’m helpless baby
