AViVA commented under her YouTube video: “HOUDINI is a conversation with someone and the two sides of reality. ‘I’m good, how are you?… I’m insane, I’m houdini in chains.’ That lyric, to me, illustrates how often we’ll just gloss over how something really makes us feel, in the pursuit of simplicity–...
[Verse 1]
No one knows the truth that I'm hiding, truth is nothing's true
But you still seem so surprised, watch ya back
Don't know what to do? Just smile
Can't say you'll ever find me running, got my demons back
Watching my back, hear them humming, can't stop that
Don't know what to do? Just smile
[Pre-Chorus]
Got tricks up my sleeve, make you wish you could leave
I could really, really make you (Scream)
[Chorus]
I'm good, how are you? Never better
I'm in-in-in-insane
I'm Houdini in chains (I'm Houdini in)
I'm good, how are you? Never better
I'm in-in-in-insane
I'm Houdini in chains (I'm Houdini in chains)
I'm Houdini in chains
Don't make me explain, I'm insane
[Verse 2]
Never understand what I'm cooking
See my mind chopped up if you insist on looking, don't do that
Don't know what to do? Just smile
Hear thе door lock when you walk in
Even if you want to leavе, it will never open, got your back
Don't know what to do? Just smile
[Pre-Chorus]
Got tricks up my sleeve, make you wish you could leave
I could really, really make you (Scream)
[Chorus]
I'm good, how are you? Never better
I'm in-in-in-insane
I'm Houdini in chains (I'm Houdini in)
I'm good, how are you? Never better
I'm in-in-in-insane
I'm Houdini in chains (I'm Houdini in chains)
I'm Houdini in chains
Don't make me explain, I'm insane
[Bridge]
Hanging by the end of a chain and they think I'm okay
But I'm really insane (I'm insane)
Hanging by the end of a chain and they think I'm okay
But I'm really insane (I'm insane)
Hanging by the end of a chain and they think I'm okay
But I'm really insane (I'm insane)
Hanging by the end of a chain and they think I'm okay
[Chorus]
I'm good, how are you? Never better
I'm in-in-in-insane
I'm Houdini in chains (I'm Houdini in)
I'm good, how are you? Never better
I'm in-in-in-insane
I'm Houdini in chains (I'm Houdini in chains)
I'm Houdini in chains
Don't make me explain, I'm insane
