In Retrospect

[Verse 1]
It’s funny how I fight back
I feel at home with tension in the room
No matter how you slice that
I’m just not myself if I’m not hurt by you

[Pre-Chorus]
Therapy's not working
Sarafem's not kicking in
All this bad shit happened
I was told to hold it in
I sing about redemption and how it never came
'Cause in retrospect, I like the pain

[Chorus]
Lungs on fire, head under water
My mind is a weapon, cold war inside my head
It fuels my obsession, 'cause who am I if not a wreck?
It seems I'm kind of fucked up in retrospect

[Verse 2]
I thought he was praying
Turned out there was no one listening
She threw us on the kitchen floor
Bruises bloom where clothes are torn
It taught me what love means

[Pre-Chorus]
Therapy’s not working
Sarafem's not kicking in
I open up my scars so I can bleed again
It proves that my heart beats inside my dead, cold chest
It seems I’m kind of fucked up in retrospect

[Chorus]
Lungs on fire, head under water
My mind is a weapon, cold war inside my head
It fuels my obsession, 'cause who am I if not a wreck?
It seems I'm kind of fucked up in retrospect

[Bridge]
Have you met another, another like me? (Like Me)
Have you seen a mind so riddled with disease? (With disease)
Have you met another, another like me? (Are you like me?)
How can I erase everything I've seen?

[Chorus]
Lungs on fire, head under water
My mind is a weapon, cold war inside my head
It fuels my obsession, 'cause who am I if not a wreck?
It seems I'm kind of fucked up in retrospect

[Outro]
Lungs on fire
'Cause who am I if not a wreck?
Head under water
Who am I if not a wreck?
It fuels my obsession
'Cause who am I if not a wreck?
It seems I'm kind of fucked up in retrospect
