Forgot what I said
The promise that I made in my head
I only make them in bed 
I know that it's convenient cause Ill probably forget

So I never answer 
My real self, no, I just run faster 
Away from the guy in the mirror
Cause A glance at myself makes it painfully clear 

These patterns that I always follow 
Are tendencies from memories 
I never quite cleared from my psyche

Cause I've been spending time 
Shifting through the paradigm
I locked myself inside and lost the key 
Turns out inside was always me 

My parents said don't take pills 
But they weren't there when my mind would chill 
It's okay though 
I got no one to blame for the track team of thoughts that I run through my brain 

I still find it hard to breathe 
When my mind starts to wander, gets lost in between 
The person I am in mind 
Versus the me that is watching that guy stay behind 

I think I've burned the image of the me I think I am 
It's taken all my will to take just one more step behind 
To see the bigger picture and it's to my own surprise 
The conscious me was here the whole time 

Cause I've been spending time 
Shifting through the paradigm
I locked myself inside and lost the key 
Turns out inside was always me 

Cause I've been spending time 
Shifting through the paradigm
I locked myself inside and lost the key 
Turns out inside was always me
