Milahroy - Sounds On The Stereo

Oh what a mess I've been
Burning myself out at both ends
We're not meant to stretch this thin
If I keep this up my bones will break skin
I need a permanent vacation
Get lost in a perpetual hallucination

I have to forget some days
It's a quicksand world
Or I take my own way
It's clear I can't see
Cause I can't remember who I'm supposed to be

Then I close my eyes so I can run back home
When the sound's too loud on the stereo
Playing in my mind
I need to leave it sometimes
The city feels like an undertow
When it gets too loud from the stereo
Playing in my mind
But I can always leave it

Feels like I'm supposed to know, everything I've never been shown
But each time I aim and miss
I'm a dissertation disproving this
Need to let myself be okay
Understand when I'm just in my own way

They keep saying i'm chasing after
Invisible things way up in the rafters
But somehow I just keep talking myself into this

Then I close my eyes so I can run back home
When the sound's too loud on the stereo
Playing in my mind
I need to leave it sometimes
The city feels like an undertow
When it gets too loud from the stereo
Playing in my mind
But I can always leave it

We don't choose what we lose but
No one can hold me tell me what to do
No one asks to go through this
But I can control how I go through it

So I close my eyes so I can run back home
When the sound's too loud on the stereo
Playing in my mind
I need to leave it sometimes
The city feels like an undertow
When it gets too loud from the stereo
Playing in my mind
But I can always leave it
