Chromatics - I'm on Fire

Lyrics:

all these words in my head
they used to want me dead
now they sit and pretend 
like theres words they never said
like im being mislead
by my own brain
getting disrupted in its own mainframe 
i'm a therapist for my friends but not myself
i really try to help 
in the ways i cant help myself
in the ways i cant help myself

i-i-i 
I really need to find myself
i really need to drown myself
with the ways that i used to feel they surround my outs
and the way used to see like my eyes were gouged 
and i-i cant sit and pretend like my lives were dealt 
i got 9 i used 6 
it was how i felt
for the end of all my pain
i was crying out 
but in the end of all my days
i was dying out

see i was waiting for the ways in me to change
i cant just release all the things inside my brain
they swallow me up and they kill off all my flames
in the end of the day there isnt any sane in me
slowing down its the end of me
pop a xan feel my ecstasy 
in the end its the death of me

its the delusions that keep me in this place
theyre taking taking me away to my next phase
ion even wanna feel this next taze
screaming in my face wheres my neck brace
i dont even wanna fight but i have to take
all these words that you say and store them in my brain
i-i-i-i
i cant feel this type of way i have to escape
running from my own face 
its a lot to intake 
but its for your safety
ion even wanna fight but its for your safety
ion even wanna yell but it's for your safety
ion even wanna flight but its for your safety
get the fuck away it's only for your safety
please just listen to me

all these words in my head
they used to want me dead
now they sit and pretend 
like theres words they never said
like im being mislead
by my own brain
getting disrupted in its own mainframe 
i'm a therapist for my friends but not myself
i really try to help 
in the ways i cant help myself
in the ways i cant help myself

i-i-i 
I really need to find myself
i really need to drown myself
with the ways that i used to feel they surround my outs
and the way used to see like my eyes were gouged

- Lyrics - 

I take my licks – like a man
Facing forward
I made my bed, it wasn't yours

How soon we'd forget – what we shared 

You said you'd always be mine
I nodded and smiled 
Tongue out of my head 

Is this love?
Or the love of the chase?
Is this love?
Tell me now, is it love?

We did the best that we can
Across the world
We made a plan, it wasn't yours

How soon we'd forget – what we shared

In folding sands
Our castle, no more
The magic -- sleight of hand

Is this love?
Or the love of the chase?
I had you once, you kept forgetting my name

Is this love?
Or the love of the chase?
What was your name?
Was it something like me?

We recede in the fog
As to breathe in this calm
And forget this walk
To leave, you and all
We were more than the fall
I hope you'd agree
Like sunlight through the fog
Always chasing me

Lil bluebell in shade – what was your name?
Was it something like me?
Lil bluebell in shade
What was your name?
Was it something like me?
