lyrics

It's creeping in my heart
My nerves, they fall apart
I try and I try and I try
To ease my mind, my mind, my mind
But it's filling up the room
I know you feel it too
When I'm not right, not right, not right
In my mind, my mind, my mind

Oh, I can't change
I always seem to live this way
You deserve someone brave
And there's days I don't want to be me

You feel it in your bones
They make you live alone
You can't speak, can't speak, can't speak
You're too weak, too weak, too weak
You stress and choke on tears
You live your life in fear
They can't tell, can't tell, can't tell
You're in hell, in hell, in hell

Oh, you can't change
You live your life their way
It hurts, it's a god damn shame

Oh, I can't change
I always seem to live this way
You deserve someone brave
Oh, you can't change
You live your life their way
It hurts, it's a god damn shame
That there's days you just want to be free
