Split at the Seams

[Verse 1] Wake up Face pressed into static and dust Phone glow Six ghosts telling me who I was You ask “Who were you talking to last night?” I stall— I don’t know which voice picked the fight Jaw locked Heartbeat chewing through wire Love you Hate you Same spark, same fire You reach— I already start to retreat Laugh it off Bleeding through everything underneath [Chorus] I’m split at the seams—don’t look inside Something in me keeps switching sides I say I love you, I mean it—then don’t Swallow it down, then I choke on the ghost I’m split at the seams, I tear and repeat Glass in my mouth when I try to speak Hold me too close and I start to erase I’m not a person—I’m shifts in a face [Verse 2] Cold flip— Your lips and I’m already gone Mid-kiss I’m turning the feeling off Door half open I’m halfway out of my skin Two steps gone— Then I’m begging you, “let me back in” One day I breathe like you’re all that I need Next day You’re suffocating me You say “This doesn’t feel real anymore” I nod— I’ve said that to mirrors before [Chorus] I’m split at the seams—don’t look inside Something in me keeps switching sides I say I love you, I mean it—then don’t Swallow it down, then I choke on the ghost I’m split at the seams, I tear and repeat Glass in my mouth when I try to speak Hold me too close and I start to erase I’m not a person—I’m shifts in a face [Bridge] Up all night on a perfect idea By morning I’m begging for amnesia Talk too fast till my words outrun me Then I disappear when it gets too heavy Head full of riots I can’t contain Skin full of sirens under my veins Punch my reflection—teeth in the glass Swear that I’m done, but I always come back Tell me—is this me or a chemical lie? Or something that learned how to wear my eyes? [Final Chorus] (push harder, more chaotic delivery) I’m split at the seams—pull it apart Every piece of me wants to restart I say I love you—I mean it—I don’t Say it again till it sounds like a joke I’m split at the seams, I fracture and feed Every version of me disagrees Hold me together or watch me replace Every last version you tried to save [Outro] Love me— before I switch again Leave me— before I pull you in Same breath Same mouth Different end I scare myself and I don’t know when
