Every time I start to doubt myself
My thoughts dancing overhead
With a life of their own
They won’t leave me alone
And I start to reminisce upon
All the ways that I’ve gone wrong
Like believing in words
Only spoken to hurt
‘Cause the night time comes and parts that broke
Keep breaking and healing again
I’m healing through hurting again
When the morning comes and all my loose ends
Get tied up and untied again
I’m braiding my wounds up again
This is what it feels like
This is what it feels like
And this is what it feels like
When will I get used to it
Used to it
Used to it
This is what it feels like
This is what it feels like
And this is what it feels like
So better get used to it
Used to it
Used to it
I’ll keep breaking and healing and breaking and healing again
Every plan that I’ve made has crumbled
All the spinning makes me weak
I keep losing my grip
No one’s there when I slip
Thought I was done with that shit when I came here
Chasing a dream but it feels like a nightmare
How do I deal with it
Deal with it
Deal with it
Better get used to it
Used to it
Used to it
When the morning comes and all my loose ends
Get tied up and untied again
I’m braiding my wounds up again
This is what it feels like
This is what it feels like
And this is what it feels like
When will I get used to it
Used to it
Used to it
This is what it feels like
This is what it feels like
And this is what it feels like
So better get used to it
Used to it
Used to it
I’ll keep breaking and healing and breaking and healing again
