[Hook]
Trapped in my own head
I'm nowhere to be found
Trapped in my own head
True self under a shroud
Trapped in my own head
I'm nowhere to be found
Trapped in my own head
True self under a shroud

[Verse]
Soul turned to dust, I'm a mere facade
Who I appear to be is but a mirage
I don't know where to go as an endless barrage
Of built up emotions penetrate my heart
Burdens of a time past adding up
Weigh my soul down, overflowing my cup
I don't know what to do
I don't know who to turn to
All I know is to keep to myself and wish for the best
Knowing that despite my efforts I know I can never rest
There's only so much someone can take
Before the pressure causes you to break
And Im at that point where I seem fine from the outside
But deep inside, my mind's a field of mines

[Hook]
Trapped in my own head
I'm nowhere to be found
Trapped in my own head
True self under a shroud
Trapped in my own head
I'm nowhere to be found
Trapped in my own head
True self under a shroud

[Dialogue]
You know, I wanna be the best me I can be, and how I see it, the best me isn't me, it's what makes those around me happy, and its not who I am. I'm afraid of ridicule and abandonment, so I try to be the person people want me to be, and not let people love me for who I am. And even if they do love me for who I am, I can't see it. I feel I must conform to the expectations of society and my authority, which to a certain extent, will help me out in the future, but I can't help myself with getting caught up in the expectations of those around me versus who I truly am, and it hurts, man. It hurts

[Bridge]
Soul turned to dust, I'm a mere facade
Who I appear to be is but a mirage
I don't know where to go as an endless barrage
Of built up emotions penetrate my heart
Soul turned to dust, I'm a mere facade
Who I appear to be is but a mirage
I don't know where to go as an endless barrage
Of built up emotions penetrate my heart

[Hook]
Trapped in my own head
I'm nowhere to be found
Trapped in my own head
True self under a shroud
Trapped in my own head
I'm nowhere to be found
Trapped in my own head
True self under a shroud
