Inside My Head

from Lying Awake by Ellery

/

lyrics

It’s just a fear, unnamed
We shouldn’t have to do this to ourselves
we shouldn’t have to do it this way

You weren’t the first, allowed
To blow in like a wind over my soul
To roll in like a thundercloud

It’s all the same, who knows
I came in with a heavy, hollow hand
I came out with a brittle hope

And with my walls defined
More surely I could shake away my pain
More confidently draw the lines

CHORUS:
So you will never get inside my,
See inside my head
You will never get inside my,
See inside my head

You took my hand, we sat down
You told me this was different than before
You told me you would stick around

But good intentions lie
Beneath the sacrifice they take,
Behind the guarded look in your eyes

CHORUS

I came prepared to fight
We shouldn’t have to do this to ourselves
I’m choking on what’s left of my pride
