Slave to my own mind
My hands feel numb
From holding on too tight
Scared to let go, scared to let…
Go of the leash that I made
My neck feels numb
But still I carry on
I carry on
I build these walls to keep everything inside
I build these walls to keep everyone outside
The whip that strikes my back
The leash I put around my neck
I’m a slave to my own head
Each time I set a new rule
It's burned in my skin
Apologies to those who know me best
I’m under water trying to hold my breath
If I decide to plunge down to the coldest depths
I only hope to know no regrets
Just know I try to
Give you all of me and never give up
But it just felt like I was never enough
Even when leveling up
I know the road to where we’re headed is rough
So if you want it than you better be tough
Just try to keep in mind…
I build these walls to keep everything inside
I build these walls to keep everyone outside
The whip that strikes my back
The leash I put around my neck
I’m a slave to my own head
Each time I set a new rule
It's burned in my skin
You’ve seen a side of me
you’ve seen a side of me
I wish you’d never seen
(Run away from me)
You’ve seen a side of me
you’ve seen a side of me
I wish you’d never seen
I build these walls to keep everyone outside
The whip that strikes my back
The leash I put around my neck
I’m a slave to my own head
Each time I set a new rule
It's burned in my skin
Slave to my own mind
My hands feel numb
From holding on too tight
Scared to let go, scared to let…
Go of the leash that I made
My neck feels numb
But still I carry on
I carry on
