[night:]
[Intro:]
I don't keep, yeah
I don’t keep, yeah
Yeah
[Hook:]
I don't keep lights in the room, just me by myself, yeah
I don't wake up with the sun, just dream by myself, yeah
Looking in got me feeling lost, sitting ’round's easy, but I wonder what's the cost, yeah, ay
Nightmares running through your head make you scream by yourself (self-self-self-self)
[Verse 1:]
All in your head, doubtin' yourself, hell that you feel
All in your head, but if you're stuck in there all of the time? That shit is real
I had a dream, all of the laughing around me was at me, and nobody called
I had a dream, I loved somebody, somebody died, shit was my fault
I'm seeing black, blacker than pitch
Middle of night, out in the woods
Black in my room, I do not go where it's sunny and yellow, I know that I should
I had a dream, threw out a picture of you and I never saw yellow again
Everyday muted in blue and some red
Walking around like I'm made of regret
I had a dream, I was like 2’11" and never met anyone’s eyes
I had a dream, I took a pill, I'm fucking finished and no-one’s surprised
I had a dream, I had one eye and nobody told me, this whole fuckin' time
I had a dream, god was a mailman, so I told him my name and he died
I had a dream, I'm at the circus, everyone thought I was one of the clowns
I had a dream, (there was a war) I never got to go back to my town
I had a dream, I was at Shaw's in the lot, just whipping around and around
I had a dream, looked at my life, up in the air and it never came down, down
[Hook:]
I don’t keep lights in the room, just me by myself, yeah
I don't wake up with the sun, just dream by myself, yeah
Looking in got me feeling lost, sitting 'round's easy, but I wonder what's the cost, yeah, ay
Nightmares running through your head make you scream by yourself (self-self-self-self)
All in your head
All in your head
All in your head (self-self-self-self)
[light:]
[Hook 2:]
Open your eyes, don't run and hide
Just look up high, I trust in you, (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't close your eyes, I know they're wide
Don't go inside, come out and move
[Verse 2:]
I'm tired so I stopped digging holes in my head
I'm not meant to roll over in bed and stay safe
Either I make haste or mostly just take breaks, but steady's a great pace
And I ran away from questions
And I ran away from research
And I ran away from lessons
And I ran away from people
And I ran away from the schoolhouse
And I ran away from the steeple, yeah
People might like you if you let 'em
So far in your head that you hardly met 'em
Just play this and stand tall
Even if your light flickers, dim in late Fall
Every Winter got a Spring, dandelions in the yard will have you feeling like a King
And when you lose all the yellow and you're shook
Take a look at how you move instead of wondering where to look
