[Verse 1]
I feel like I can't lie much more today
I need to be myself another way
I fear that this mask is here to stay
'Cause it's why they don't run away

[Chorus]
Don't let me stray far away
I want to stay inside my brain
Don't let me stray far away
I want to stay
I want to stay

[Verse 2]
I want to stop all my lies
But I'm scared to see what what'll happen when I take off my disguise
My identity
Taken by this entity
I though it was my friend but now I know that it's my enemy
Trying to take my soul
Throw me out into the cold
But I can't even fight it because then I'd go uncontrolled
So maybe it's good that it stays
I wouldn't have a thing bad to say
I'd let it live my days
They'd be happy that way (Yeah)
And live will be better that way
Yeah, life will be better that way

[Pre-Chorus]
No
What am I saying
It's trying to take over my brain
I need to
Block it out and kick it out
Out of my lane
Don't let me go away
I'm not happy at all this way
No, please I want to stay
Don't let me go away
Please
Don't let me go away
Please

[Chorus]
Don't let me stray far away
I want to stay inside my brain
Don't let me stray far away
I want to stay
I want to stay

[Bridge]
Feels like it's never-ending
Behind this shield is where my true self resides
But it's always so tempting
Anxious about this life
I'm leading a lie
I see them so joyful
I'll try to go and join them too
I'm breaking this mask
That's holding me back
I'm not holding me back
I'm not holding me back
I'm not holding me back
[Chorus]
Don't let me stray far away
I want to stay inside my brain
Don't let me stray far away
I want to stay
I want to stay
