Voices In My Head

[Verse 1] I pace that room again Heel taps on the tile Jaw set, eyes wide Like I ran for miles Tongue on the teeth Click-clack, tic-tac I spit in the dark And the dark spit back Cold hands, hot head I don't sleep, I loop One voice says run One voice says shoot I keep my face still But the noise gets loud Pressing on my ribs Like a boot in a crowd [Pre-Chorus] Talk to me straight Say it to my face Keep that pressure on Don't let it escape One more breath Then it breaks loose I count my steps To the edge of the bruise [Chorus] The voices in my head (in my head) They don't stop, they don't quit The voices in my head (in my head) Tell me move, tell me hit The voices in my head (in my head) Got me wired up tight The voices in my head (in my head) Keep me up all night [Verse 2] Back of my skull Like a club in a fist Every old mistake Got a lock on my wrist I talk in code I chew on the doubt Smoke in the lungs When the words spill out My shadow leans in Says "go, go, go" My reflection smirks Like it already knows I stomp that floor Till the boards complain Try to shake it off But it loves that pain [Pre-Chorus] Talk to me straight Say it to my face Keep that pressure on Don't let it escape One more breath Then it breaks loose I count my steps To the edge of the bruise [Chorus] The voices in my head (in my head) They don't stop, they don't quit The voices in my head (in my head) Tell me move, tell me hit The voices in my head (in my head) Got me wired up tight The voices in my head (in my head) Keep me up all night [Bridge] [Breakdown] Hear that pulse in my chest Like a fist on a door I met my own fear And it wanted more Say what you mean If you mean it, shout If the cage gets bent I will break out [Final Chorus] The voices in my head (in my head) They don't stop, they don't quit The voices in my head (in my head) Tell me move, tell me hit The voices in my head (in my head) Got me wired up tight The voices in my head (in my head) Keep me up all night
