Lyrics

in my head

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Here's the thing: You’re in love with a version of a person

That you've created in your head

That you are trying to, but cannot fix

Uh, the only thing you can fix is yourself

I love you, this has gone on way too long

Enough is enough

I'm two blocks away, I’m coming over

Painted a picture, I thought I knew you well

I got a habit of seeing what isn't there

Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets

When you broke my heart, I said you only wanted half of me

My imagination's too creative

They see demon, I see angel, angel, angel

Without the halo, wingless angel

Falling, falling, but I never thought you'd leave me

Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh

I thought that you were the one

But it was all in my head

It was all in my head (skrrt, skrrt)

Yeah, look at you, boy, I invented you

Your Gucci tennis shoes, runnin' from your issues

Cardio good for the heart (for the heart, for the heart)

I figure we can work it out, hmm

Painted a picture, I thought I drew you well

I had a vision of seeing what isn't there

Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets

When you broke my heart, said you only wanted half of me

My imagination's too creative

They see Cain and I see Abel (Abel), Abel (Abel), Abel

I know you're able, willing and able

Falling, falling, but I thought that you would need me

Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh

I thought that you were the one

But it was all in my head

It was all in my head (skrrt, skrrt)

Yeah, look at you, boy, I invented you

Your Gucci tennis shoes, runnin’ from your issues

Cardio good for the heart (for the heart)

I figure we can work it out, hmm

Wanted you to grow, but, boy, you wasn’t budding

Everything you are made you everything you aren't

I saw your potential without seein’ credentials

Maybe that's the issue (yeah, yeah)

Said maybe that's the issue, ah

Can't hold that shit against you, ah

Yes, I did it to myself, yeah

Thought you were somebody else, you

Thought you were somebody else, you (you)

Thought you were somebody else, you
