(Verse 1) I sleep with the TV on, Just to drown the thoughts out, Static in my chest again, But I don’t know what it’s about. Everybody says I’m distant, Guess I learned to disappear, Smile like it doesn’t hurt, Cry when nobody’s here. Pre-Chorus (soft, fragile) My mind won’t shut up, Keeps me awake at night, Every little whisper turns Into a fight. Chorus (breathy, haunting) There’s a ghost inside my bedroom, Looks a little bit like me, Tells me I’m too broken, That I’ll never really leave. Anxiety in my bloodstream, Depression in my bones, I hate being surrounded… And I hate being alone. (Verse 2) Panic dressed in pretty lies, Makes a home inside my skin, Everybody says, “You’re okay,” Wish I knew where to begin. I count cracks up on the ceiling, Like somehow they understand, Try to hold myself together, But I’m slipping through my hands. (Pre-Chorus) My mind won’t slow down, Everything feels loud, Even in a quiet room, I’m still drowning in the sound. (Chorus) There’s a ghost inside my bedroom, Looks a little bit like me, Tells me I’m too broken, That I’ll never really leave. Anxiety in my bloodstream, Depression in my bones, I hate being surrounded… And I hate being alone. Bridge (stripped, vulnerable) Maybe I’m not lazy, Maybe I’m just tired, Carrying invisible weight Feels a little like fire. Maybe I’ll be okay someday… I just don’t know when. Outro So I leave the TV running, Try to silence all the noise, But the loudest thing I’ve ever heard… Is the voice inside my head.
