Lyrics
[Chorus]
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
[Verse 1]
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control, I fear, is never-ending
Controlling, I can't seem
[PreChorus]
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence, I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take
I've felt this way before
So insecure
[Chorus]
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
[Verse 2]
Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting (Distracting)
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection (My own reflection)
It's haunting how I can't seem (It's haunting)
[PreChorus]
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence, I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take
I've felt this way before
So insecure
[Chorus]
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
[Chorus]
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real (There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface, consuming)
Confusing what is real (This lack of self-control, I fear, is never-ending, controlling)
Confusing what is real
