[Intro: DAMONA]
In my head
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Let it begin, push it away, but it's pulling me in
Try to pretend, I'm not aware when I do it again
I know the signs, I see the pattern in front of my eyes
Something inside me opens up wide, stretching and coming alive
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda]
I can't stop it when it starts
Trying not to fall apart
Building up until it all goes dark
[Chorus: Mike Shinoda, Mike & DAMONA]
In my head, I can feel it getting closer
In my head, breathing heavy on my shoulder
And I'm trying to fake it, but there's no way to escape it
In my head, buried underneath the noises
In my head, therе's a million little voices
Saying "You'll nevеr make it, and there's no way to escape it"
In my head
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
Coming around, thoughts are intruding, I'm pushing 'em down
Stopping it now, blocking out, in fact I'm blocking it out
Holding too tight, kidding myself, turn a wrong into right
Thief in the night, I've been the one putting gas in the lights
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda]
I can't stop it when it starts
Trying not to fall apart
Building up until it all goes dark
[Chorus: Mike Shinoda, Mike & DAMONA]
In my head, I can feel it getting closer
In my head, breathing heavy on my shoulder
And I'm trying to fake it, but there's no way to escape it
[Bridge: Mike Shinoda]
'Cause I'm swirling in the panic of a shaking confidence
No, I don't have an answer when the questions don't make sense
[Chorus: Mike Shinoda, Mike & DAMONA]
In my head, I can feel it getting closer
In my head, breathing heavy on my shoulder
And I'm trying to fake it, but there's no way to escape it
In my head, buried underneath the noises
In my head, there's a million little voices
Saying "You'll never make it, and there's no way to escape it"
In my head
