I don't feel like myself

Burning little holes into my skin

It could be

Just pretend

A dark play

Inside my own head
Am Em
But how do you know if you lost it

When you're already swimming in the deep end

Feel like a plane without a pilot

Mayday baby, Mayday

I'm afraid to use a knife

Always picturing violence

I don't want to die but when I'm driving into headlights

I see my body flying through the glass

I see myself in front of buses
G
And balcony jumping

Tell me what the fuck is going on
Am Em
Tell me where do these thoughts come from?

Where do these thoughts come from?
