Can't Escape What's in My Head
Thoughts of terrible things in my head.
My loved ones might leave me behind.
Or they find me in the gutter, naked and dead.
Trying to relax. Need to stop thinking.
Now I'm swimming in the ocean
below the waves I'm sinking.
Gasping for air but on solid ground.
A voice in my head tells me something:
"No one cares if you're around."
Put the headphones on for a while
and don't listen to what they say.
I'm troubled by my own mind
but the pain can go away.
Don't pay attention to the sound.
It's nothing I want to hear.
These thoughts are not gonna hurt me
and my headphones are always near.
