Inner Thoughts

[Verse 1] I smile with my mouth And flinch in my chest I say "I'm fine" out loud Then argue with the rest Small storm in my ribs Big noise in my head I fold up my truth And tuck it under bed [Pre-Chorus] You don't see the names I give my fear at night You don't hear the doors I lock inside my mind I'm all quiet hands And a trembling spine Waiting for my own voice To cross that line [Chorus] Inner thoughts, inner thoughts They keep me up Inner thoughts, inner thoughts Too loud to touch I wear a calm face But I come undone Inner thoughts, inner thoughts You know me not (inner thoughts) (inner thoughts) [Verse 2] There's a cracked up mirror In the back of me It tells half the truth Then laughs when I agree I rehearse goodbye In the car, in the rain Then you say my name And it all goes blank again [Pre-Chorus] You don't see the names I give my fear at night You don't hear the doors I lock inside my mind I'm all quiet hands And a trembling spine Waiting for my own voice To cross that line [Chorus] Inner thoughts, inner thoughts They keep me up Inner thoughts, inner thoughts Too loud to touch I wear a calm face But I come undone Inner thoughts, inner thoughts You know me not (inner thoughts) (inner thoughts) [Bridge] If I let it out Would you still stay? If I show the bruise Would you look away? I'm not hard to love Just hard to find I been living two lives In one body of mine [Final Chorus] Inner thoughts, inner thoughts They keep me up Inner thoughts, inner thoughts Too loud to touch I wear a calm face But I come undone Inner thoughts, inner thoughts You know me none (inner thoughts) (inner thoughts)
