[Verse 1] Uneasy in the brain even when logic explains everything frame by frame grasping for answers, feeling insane settling in quiet shame for an offense I fabricated in my head heart pounding, filling me with dread grasping for answers that aren't there searching every corner, finding nothing anywhere Finding it hard to sit still like knowing there's nothing wrong doesn't change the way I feel should I take a snap, or would a dab do to calm the mind enough to make it through long enough to sit on the floor and let go stop demanding an answer from something I already know [Chorus 1] Uneasy in the brain logic says I'm fine but the feeling stays the same Uneasy in the brain running every frame trying to find an answer for a problem with no name Uneasy in the brain heart pounding out the doubt looking for a reason when there's nothing left to figure out Uneasy in the brain I know there's nothing there but knowing doesn't stop me from searching everywhere [Verse 2] After two hours of stewing finally made it to the lair took a snap only to look at my despair tolerance pushback was too high I didn't feel a thing still waiting for the quiet still listening for the change it might bring So I topped it off with a good-sized dab of Pipedream trying to soften the edges of everything surrounding me only for the unease to start rising louder every time I tried silencing until somewhere underneath all the noise came the realization— it's time to stop trying [Chorus 2] Uneasy in the brain logic says I'm fine but the feeling hasn't changed Uneasy in the brain every time I push it down it only rises up again Uneasy in the brain maybe there's no answer to find maybe all this grasping is what's keeping it alive Uneasy in the brain nothing left to explain maybe I don't need to fix it maybe I can let it stay [Verse 3] Finally made it to the floor after a while found a rock of ice in my core stayed with it long enough and it expanded into an empty pit I walked through the door didn't ask what waited on the other side didn't need to understand it anymore I just sat there with it till I didn't notice it anymore cold slowly disappearing until all I could feel was warmth and I finally felt calm once more Felt the grief in the pit rise and fall for about an hour no hands around its throat no need to overpower condensing slowly in my internal fire cyclone letting whatever needed movement move without being controlled [Chorus 3] Uneasy in the brain but I'm not chasing it this time letting every rise and fall move without asking why Uneasy in the brain I can feel it start to change not because I found the answer not because I made it fade Uneasy in the brain but the ice is losing form sitting in the empty pit until the cold gives way to warmth Uneasy in the brain nothing conquered, nothing slain I just stopped trying to escape it and it didn't feel the same [Outro] Unease is still there the future is unknown but at least it isn't as loud anymore and maybe tonight that's enough to carry home Still feel the scar forming over my core where shards of ice penetrated my light source warmth closing around the edges but I'm not pretending there isn't something sore Did what I could no more answers to force now it's time to do a dab once more and see what the rest of the night has in store [Final Chorus] Uneasy in the brain yeah, it's still somewhere inside but I don't need another answer just to make it through the night Uneasy in the brain future still unknown but the voice that filled the whole damn room is barely more than a tone Uneasy in the brain nothing magically changed tomorrow might bring it back and I might walk this floor again Uneasy in the brain but it isn't quite the same I never found the answer— I just stopped asking it to explain
