I’m a lot of people’s favorite person.
I’m a lot to deal with right now.
I’m allowed to feel like I’m important, right?
Yeah, but I could probably stand to come a notch down.
That’s a lot of pressure to perform.
That’s a lot of effort for a sad return.
There's a law against this amount of self indulgence, I'm sure.
Oh, chemistry's inevitable after burn.
I always thought I’d hear hear the missiles coming.
I kinda thought we’d turn the keys in unison.
Now i’m paranoid about this distant humming.
Oh, the lonely freedom that comes with new beginnings.
But who are we to say when a song begins?
And how do we really know when it ends?
I'm sewin’ my head shut, I'm so in my head.
I'm sewin’ my head shut. I'm so in my head.
I’m a couple people’s ex boyfriend.
Imma cut me off before I call em up.
That's about as cordial as divorce gets.
Never mind... guess I didn’t wait long enough.
That's enough pleasantries for one week.
I play hard but I’m really not all that tough, today.
See, I really meant to write this song tongue and cheek.
Waitin’ for the other me to call my bluff.
It’s exhausting being so open minded.
I tried it once, it left me high for life and naked.
There’s a calm beyond the storm; I hope you find it.
Oh, my diatribes disguised as thank you’s.
But, who am I to rely on my closest friends?
And, sure, who are you to force amends?
I'm sewin’ my head shut, I'm so in my head.
I'm sewin’ my head shut. I'm so in my head.
I can’t get outta my head. Get outta my head.
Get outta my head. Get outta my head.
Hey Pat, get outta my head. Get outta my head.
Get outta my head. Get outta my head.
I can’t get outta my head. Get outta my head.
Get outta my head. Get outta my head.
Hey Pat, get outta my head. Get outta my head.
Get outta my head. Get outta my head.
I’m a lot of people’s favorite person.
I’m a lot to deal with most the time.
I was kinda feelin’ self important when I wrote this.
Or self loathing. I blur the line.
But maybe I’ll grow desperate and young again.
And let the world back in and pull these threads.
But I'm sewin’ my head shut, I'm so in my head.
For now, I'm sewin’ my head shut. I'm so in my head.
