In My Head Lyrics by Alfie Castley
My body’s pretty tired
I can’t remember my last sleep
I don’t know how to smile
And keep forgetting how to breathe
My lungs are filling up
With all the air I’m taking in
When I think I’ve had enough
Is when the pain truly begins
You thought you knew me
You thought you could stop it all
You fell into its trap
I thought I could fix this
But deep down I know I won’t
I’m never coming back
Don’t you know that in my head
It’s a nightmare one I can’t escape
I tell myself that it will be fine
I’m lying to my face
Don’t you know that in my head
There’s a darkness eating me alive
I try to run but I can’t hide
From the ghost that lives in my mind
It started in my chest
And worked its way up to my eyes
That shiver in my breath
From all the scars I’ve tried to hide
I’ve told you all the ways
That you could save yourself from me
‘Cause I’m too far from okay
For you to pull me from the deep
You thought you knew me
You thought you could stop it all
You fell into its trap
I thought I could fix this
But deep down I know I won’t
I’m never coming back
Don’t you know that in my head
It’s a nightmare one I can’t escape
I tell myself that it will be fine
I’m lying to my face
Don’t you know that in my head
There’s a darkness eating me alive
I try to run but I can’t hide
From the ghost that lives in my mind
Don’t you know that in my head
It’s a nightmare one I can’t escape
I tell myself that it will be fine
I’m lying to my face
Don’t you know that in my head
There’s a darkness eating me alive
I try to run but I can’t hide
From the ghost that lives in my mind
