Blood-bath inside my head

It’s a blood bath inside my head

killing everything I am

I keep drowning in the mess I made

same hands pulling me down again

If I don’t change, I’ll fade instead

just a ghost in my own skin

It’s a blood bath inside my head

and I’m the one who let it in

Got a war zone

where my thoughts live

Red paint on the walls

but it’s all in

Every mirror in the house

talks back to me

Saying, “How you gonna heal

when you love to bleed?”

Sleep on a mattress

full of bad dreams

I wake up with my hands

round my own schemes

Keep a mask in the drawer

so the flaws fit

But the holes in the eye slots

still drip

It’s a blood bath inside my head

killing everything I am

I keep drowning in the mess I made

same hands pulling me down again

If I don’t change, I’ll fade instead

just a ghost in my own skin

It’s a blood bath inside my head

and I’m the one who let it in

Every promise that I broke

got a chalk line

Outline of the person

I was last time

Scroll through my sins

like a timeline feed

Every little petty lie

every dark need

I blame the world

while I twist the knife

(Argue with the ceiling

like it ruined my life

But that reflection

won’t move till I do

If I’m pointing at them

then it’s pointing back too)

I can’t wash this off

but I can own it

I can’t kill my past

but I can outgrow it

So I stand in the flood

till the red runs clear

Learn to stitch these cuts

instead of disappear

If I tear this armor

from my chest

Maybe I can lay

my old self to rest

(It’s a blood bath inside my head

killing everything I am

I keep drowning in the mess I made

same hands pulling me down again

If I don’t change, I’ll fade instead

just a ghost in my own skin

It’s a blood bath inside my head

and I’m the one who let it in)

It’s a blood bath inside my head

killing everything I am

I keep drowning in the mess I made

same hands pulling me down again

If I don’t change, I’ll fade instead

just a ghost in my own skin

It’s a blood bath inside my head

and I’m the one who let it in
