Mm
Can’t turn it down
No, I can’t turn it down
[Verse 1]
You took your coat, took your keys
Left a dent in the couch next to me
I cleared the room, aired the place
But your shadow still knows my face
I threw away all the proof
Every photo, every excuse
But my mind keeps the worst souvenirs
Plays them back like you’re still here
[Pre-Chorus]
Talking to myself in fragments
Your voice slips through the cracks and
I don’t know where you end and I begin
Palms on the counter, breathing
Heart keeps pulling me deeper
Like it’s safer to lose than win
[Chorus]
You’re living in my skull
Like a hook I can’t escape
Still looping that moment
I wish I could erase
I tear at the noise
Try to shut you out
But you’re written in the language
Of every single doubt
You’re living in my skull
You’re living in my skull
Can’t forget you, can’t forget you
God, it’s wearing me down
[Verse 2]
You said love’s just a phase
Guess I stayed for the ache
Now your name tastes sharp
Every time I speak
I swear I’m fine, I’m good
But my body still misunderstood
Every promise I swore was dead
Still wakes me up inside my head
[Pre-Chorus]
Room so quiet it’s screaming
I replay what you didn’t mean and
Still somehow blame myself
I tell my heart “be reasonable”
But it’s feral, it’s breakable
And it wants what’s bad for my health
[Chorus]
You’re living in my skull
Like a hook I can’t escape
Still looping that moment
I wish I could erase
I tear at the noise
Try to shut you out
But you’re written in the language
Of every single doubt
You’re living in my skull
You’re living in my skull
Can’t forget you, can’t forget you
God, it’s wearing me down
[Bridge]
If I silence your name
Do I lose my voice too?
If I burn every memory
What survives the truth?
You carved your shape in my bones
Now I don’t know what’s mine
I’m scared if I heal
I’ll leave myself behind
(drop—bass heavy, distant guitars breathing)
[Final Chorus]
You’re living in my skull
Like a curse dressed as fate
Still loving the damage
Even knowing the taste
I beat on the walls
Begging you out
But you’re stitched in the pattern
Of every single doubt
You’re living in my skull
You’re living in my skull
Can’t forget you, can’t forget you
Maybe that’s the point
[Outro]
Mm
Maybe that’s the point
Still living in my skull
