Letra
Verse 1
There’s a noise in my head I can’t shut out
Keeps yelling at me when I’m breaking down
I’m working, I’m tired, I’m trying to stand
But my own damn mind won’t give me a chance
Breathing’s heavy like a warning call
Chest tight, vision shaking like I’m gonna fall
I’m angry at things I don’t understand
Like I’m fighting a ghost with my bare hands
Pre-Chorus
And every time I think I’m calm
My heartbeat hits like a ticking bomb
I’m drowning in a body that feels all wrong
Tell me why it hurts to hold on
Chorus
What’s living inside my skin?
Why does it pull me back when I’m trying to win?
Why do I feel like a stranger again?
Someone explain why I’m not who I’ve been
I’m fighting a war I never asked to begin
What’s living inside my skin?
Verse 2
Guilt hits hard like a sideways wave
Makes me apologize for every day
For needing space, for wanting peace
For just trying to breathe without being blamed
My memory flickers like a dying light
Since the crash I’ve been a different fight
They say I changed—maybe they’re right
But damn, can I live my life?
Pre-Chorus
I hear my body scream “slow down”
But the world keeps dragging me around
And I’m done pretending I’m not breaking now
I need the truth, no matter how loud
Chorus
What’s living inside my skin?
Why does it pull me back when I’m trying to win?
Why do I feel like a stranger again?
Someone explain why I’m not who I’ve been
I’m fighting a war I never asked to begin
What’s living inside my skin?
Bridge
Maybe it’s trauma I never healed
Maybe it’s pieces I never could feel
Maybe my soul got lost in the crash
And now I’m picking up shards of my past
But maybe I’m stronger than I know
Maybe this fire’s how I grow
If I’m a storm, then let it show
Cause I’m done letting my fear take control
Final Chorus
What’s living inside my skin?
If it wants a fight, then let it begin
I’m not the same, but I won’t give in
I’ll rebuild myself from deep within
I’m breaking apart just to rise again
And now I know what’s inside my skin
There’s a noise in my head I can’t shut out
Keeps yelling at me when I’m breaking down
I’m working, I’m tired, I’m trying to stand
But my own damn mind won’t give me a chance
Breathing’s heavy like a warning call
Chest tight, vision shaking like I’m gonna fall
I’m angry at things I don’t understand
Like I’m fighting a ghost with my bare hands
Pre-Chorus
And every time I think I’m calm
My heartbeat hits like a ticking bomb
I’m drowning in a body that feels all wrong
Tell me why it hurts to hold on
Chorus
What’s living inside my skin?
Why does it pull me back when I’m trying to win?
Why do I feel like a stranger again?
Someone explain why I’m not who I’ve been
I’m fighting a war I never asked to begin
What’s living inside my skin?
