(Verse)
More or less I can try my best to alleviate this stress that's giving me such unrest, As I lie here wide awake these bones begin to ache
Every night's the same, hoping that it will change
(Chorus)

(Chorus)
Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
It's all within, the feeling from your own skin

This is just a phase I keep Telling Myself

Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
(Chorus)
Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
It's all within, the feeling from your own skin
When you find a trace but you're never the same
This is just a phase I keep Telling Myself
