[Female Vocal Haunting]
Mhmm… ohhh… ohhhwwwa…
[Male Vocal]
I’m tired of being hurt, somebody help me with this hole inside my chest,
Every thought is like a threat, never giving me a second just to rest.
In my head it’s a mess, hear ’em banging at the door,
Asking what the hell that noise is for
(Oohh…)
Blood rushing, jaw locked, grinding on my teeth,
Searching for some heaven while I’m buried underneath
Driving through the darkness, yeah, I know what it means
They wait until I’m weakest just to crawl into my dreams.
And I know
That’s how they get to me.
[Male Vocal]
I watch my own back, and somehow they still get to me,
They know exactly where to dig into my memories.
Most days alone, so it’s easier to live rent-free,
Inside my head, turning every breath into another victory.
But I can’t keep letting them win,
I won’t let this become a history session.
I won’t let the darkest nights
Write a whole documentary of my confessions,
I don’t wanna die,
So I know I can’t keep hiding when I’m suffering.
I gotta let somebody in
Even when my mind keeps telling me they’ll never understand me.
Recovery ain’t a straight line,
Some days I lose, some days I fight
There ain’t ever a guarantee.
But I still wanna show ’em
What I could be.
[Hook]
But my… my enemies
Don’t like it when I try to change things.
They don’t like seeing me
Learning how to live beside the pain.
So they wear old faces,
Bring back places,
Pulling every memory
Just to keep me in jeopardy.
Tryna siphon all my energy,
Keep me down where nobody sees…
But I know, I know,
That’s how they get to me.
[Male Vocal]
I watch my own back, but I always let ’em get to me,
They really love to fuck with me.
But this time
It’s gonna be a different kind of fight.
I can’t keep going back
To making hard days harder every night.
That’s how they get to me…
I watch my own back, they keep trying to get to me,
But they ain’t writing my whole history.
This time
You’re gonna see a different side.
Even if I crawl through hell,
I’m still coming out alive.
[Female Vocal Underneath]
(Mhmm… don’t let ’em get to you…)
(Oohh… don’t let ’em get to you…)
[Male Vocal]
Tears falling fast but not as fast as
Nightmares pulling pieces from my past
Every reputation, every mistake,
Every heart I chased and every heart I broke along the way, No motivation,
Same rotation,
Running from myself without a destination.
Every wrong turn telling me
That’s all I’m ever gonna be
Nah…
I’m more than what happened.
More than my mistakes.
More than every voice inside
That keeps me wide awake.
And maybe they’ll come back tomorrow,
Maybe they’ll scream louder next week,
But every time I choose to keep going
They lose another piece of me.
[Hook]
I watch my own back, they still try to get to me,
They really love to fuck with me.
But this time
It’s gonna be a different kind of fight.
I can’t keep going back
To making hard days harder every night.
I watch my own back, they still try to get to me,
But this time,
I’m gonna make it through the night…
