Echoes In My Head

[Verse 1] I pour two cups of coffee Set one across from me Ask myself the question That I dodge most weeks Why you scared of resting? Why you chase that ghost? Mouth says “I’m just busy” Heartbeat says “you’re close” [Chorus] I’ve been talking with myself again Round and round the same old bend Arguing in circles Friend and enemy in my skin Talking with myself again Soft and cruel My closest friend Say I’ll change tomorrow Then I stay the way I’ve been [Verse 2] I laugh at my reflection It laughs a little late Says “you love the pressure ’Cause it keeps you straight” I write down resolutions Then I cross them out Afraid of what might happen If I live them out (oh) [Chorus] I’ve been talking with myself again Round and round the same old bend Arguing in circles Friend and enemy in my skin Talking with myself again Soft and cruel My closest friend Say I’ll change tomorrow Then I stay the way I’ve been [Bridge] Maybe I’m not broken Just a little loud inside Two voices at the table Trying hard to pick a side So I raise my cup and whisper “To the stranger that I am” If I learn to love you Maybe we can make a plan [Chorus] I’ve been talking with myself again But I’m learning how to listen in Holding all my pieces Letting a little mercy in Talking with myself again This time like a truer friend If I change tomorrow I’ll remember where I’ve been
