Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes it's hard to remember I'm breathing, that I'm still physically around
And I need some validation to keep my head and feet out of the clouds
It's like I only just existed for the first time in a while
Memory? Never met her
Am I in the sky or six feet underground?
Hello to myself in the vision I see in unpaved roads
Can I switch from sad to happy?
Man, I'm still uprooted from all these moods and modes
Modes and moods?
I've had it with my attitude
Can I just accept for a second that some things happen
Maybe I'm just being rude, but I can't see a way to break the walls of this damn prison down
They think that I don't know, but man, I know
And I'm done playing the clown
[Verse 2]
'Cause you don't know what it's like to be the center of a joke
When no one's talking, no one's laughing
But I'm pretty sure I'm embarrassing
To them and you
All the people that think I just play the fool but it's cool
'Cause I'm ten times more existent than you
[Chorus]
I want to break and run away
Escape beyond my confines
I'm held in place by fate alone
Lost within this world
[Verse 3]
I need to remind myself that I'm not just a pain in the neck
For all my friends and all my family, I just need some self respect
Or I need a society that cares
About the people who don't know if their mind fractures can ever be repaired
When I was twelve, I remember feeling wrong
Like my mind and my body were different planes of being
Something's off
It's like I'm from another time or I'm from another world
How do you tell your mum that her little boy's her little girl?
[Chorus]
I want to break and run away
Escape beyond my confines
I'm held in place by fate alone
Lost within this world
[Verse 4]
Gotta clamp down hard, stop the blood flow
Everybody looking out for me in slow-mo
Get my words in first, scared of FOMO
What you gotta hunt down the meaning in the song for?
Roll tight, take it down like a uniform
Lurking at the bottom of the sea, find my true form
Nothing stops the thots from rising to the top of the pops, and the core, and the drop when it breaks down
