VERSE 1 I smile in the mirror but it’s fake again Try to look okay, but I break again All these voices telling me I’m not enough And I’m so tired of being tough Scrolling through the faces that I used to know They look so happy, I feel so low Every night I lie awake, replay the things I said It’s just a mess inside my head PRE-CHORUS And I try to let it go But it cuts too deep, it hurts to grow I wish that I could just forget All the things I still regret CHORUS There’s a mess in my head Full of words I never said And I’m drowning in the silence Of the things I can’t defend I keep smiling in the crowd But I’m screaming out so loud And nobody hears me Nobody sees the mess in my head VERSE 2 Coffee getting cold, I don’t even care Phone lights up, but I just stare I lost myself somewhere between Who I was and who I’ve been Tried to be the sunshine in everyone’s day But I’m the rain that won’t go away I hate the way I overthink what everyone has said It’s just a mess inside my head PRE-CHORUS And I try to make it right But the truth gets lost in all my lies I wish that I could just forget The me I haven’t met CHORUS There’s a mess in my head Full of words I never said And I’m drowning in the silence Of the things I can’t defend I keep smiling in the crowd But I’m screaming out so loud And nobody hears me Nobody sees the mess in my head BRIDGE Maybe I’m too much, maybe I’m not enough Maybe I’m just tired of falling in love With the pain that keeps me alive I’m losing myself just to survive FINAL CHORUS There’s a mess in my head Full of tears I never shed And I’m trying to find a reason But it’s gone again instead I keep smiling in the crowd But I’m breaking down somehow And nobody hears me Nobody sees the mess in my head OUTRO It’s just me and my thoughts again The same old story with no end It’s quiet now… Inside my head.
