[Verse 1]
I wake up in a box of breath
Four walls pressing on my chest
Something smiles behind my eyes
Leaves its fingerprints inside
I lock the door, it learns the code
Knows every crack along my bones
It calls my name in a broken tone
And makes my pulse feel like a stone
[Pre-Chorus]
It keeps me close
Too close
I feel it crawl beneath my skin
It knows the way
To get in
[Chorus]
Claustrophobic
I can't shake it
(claustrophobic)
It wears my face when I break it
Claustrophobic
Pull me under
(claustrophobic)
Laughing loud in my thunder
[Verse 2]
It talks through me with sharpened teeth
Spits black rain through every beat
When I smile, it bares its jaw
When I fall, it takes more
I swear I saw it in the glass
Standing where my shadow passed
Hands on my throat, soft and slow
Saying, "Boy, you let me grow"
[Pre-Chorus]
It keeps me close
Too close
I feel it crawl beneath my skin
It knows the way
To get in
[Chorus]
Claustrophobic
I can't shake it
(claustrophobic)
It wears my face when I break it
Claustrophobic
Pull me under
(claustrophobic)
Laughing loud in my thunder
[Bridge]
[Growl]
I am the door
I am the lock
I am the room with the chains on top
[Whispered]
If I run, it runs
If I pray, it bends
If I cut it out, it comes back again
[Demoniac laugh]
Ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha
[Chorus]
Claustrophobic
I can't shake it
(claustrophobic)
It wears my face when I break it
Claustrophobic
Pull me under
(claustrophobic)
Laughing loud in my thunder
