"My Word"

Acoustic Pop / Singer-Songwriter, male vocals

(Chorus)
I apologize for being in my head today
I promise, darlin', it's not on you
I'm just trying to figure this all out, find a way
It's me, it's only me, that's true.
I'm so lost, and I'm confused, but most of all, I'm scared
I won't bore you with the details of my mind's hell
It's a battle I was meant to fight, a solitary cell
And I give you my word, I won't disappear again.

(Verse 2)
Don't mistake the quiet for a lack of love
It's just a war I'm not the master of
A tangled web of doubt and fear
That only seems to crystalize when you are near
Not 'cause of you, but 'cause your light
Makes all my shadows feel so infinite and wide
So let me stand here for a while
And try to muster up a smile.

(Bridge)
I don't know if I can win this war inside my skin
If this is a battle that I'm ever gonna win
But I'll never stop fighting, no, I'll never lay it down
I'll claw my way through the quiet, I will stand my ground
For you.

(Chorus)
I apologize for being in my head today
I promise, darlin', it's not on you!
I'm just trying to figure this all out, find a way
It's me, it's only me, that's true.
I'm so lost, and I'm confused, but most of all, I'm scared
I won't bore you with the details of my mind's hell
It's a battle I was meant to fight, a solitary cell
And I give you my word...

(Outro)
I give you my word...
I won't disappear into my head again.
No, I won't disappear...
I'm fighting.

(Verse 1) The coffee's cold, the room is still You're talking but the words don't fit the drill I'm miles away, behind my eyes Chasing echoes and my own goodbyes I see the question start to form A gathering, quiet storm So let me speak before it breaks For all the subtle heartaches. (Chorus) I apologize for being in my head today I promise, darlin', it's not on you I'm just trying to figure this all out, find a way It's me, it's only me, that's true. I'm so lost, and I'm confused, but most of all, I'm scared I won't bore you with the details of my mind's hell It's a battle I was meant to fight, a solitary cell And I give you my word, I won't disappear again.
