[Verse 1]
Wake up to a riot in my skull
Same script
Different scars
Every thought a trigger on my tongue
I choke
Before I start
Plans on the wall like wanted posters
Every dream
Marked in red
I drag my feet like metal folders
Full of things
I never said
[Chorus]
It’s a barbed wire halo
Digging in deep
Psychologic warfare
When I try to sleep
I’m losing control
Of the wheel in my hands
I’m stuck in a battle
With my own commands
[Verse 2]
Mirror’s just a jury in a frame
Stares through
Every mask
Tells me I’m a fraud for wanting change
Laughs low
When I ask
I’ve got anchors tied around my ankles
Every step
Feels like lead
Even when the road is laid out straight
I circle back
Instead
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Who’s the voice that sounds like mine
Feeding doubt like it’s a lifeline
Calling every weakness
“Proof you’re right”
[whispered vocals]
You won’t make it
You won’t last
Play the failures
On repeat
On blast
[full band
Crescendo]
I bite my tongue until it bleeds
Trying to drown these dirty creeds
But every time I move to leap
It drags me down
It drags me—
[Chorus]
