Thoughts

Sometimes I just can’t control my thoughts

No medication’s ever made them stop

All I think about is everything I’m not

Instead of everything I’ve got

'Cause I’m scared they’re all laughing

So I make the joke first

If I beat 'em to the punchline

Then I can’t get hurt

Yeah, I swear to God I’m trying

But I don’t know how to be

How to be a good friend to me

'Cause sometimes I just feel like I’m a freak

When I wake up, I just don’t like what I see

All the way from my head right down to my feet

Wish that I felt differently

But I’m scared they’re all laughing

So I make the joke first

If I beat 'em to the punchline

Then I can’t get hurt

Yeah, I swear to God I’m trying

But I don’t know how to be

How to be a good friend to me

Change

Wonder if I’ll ever really change

'Cause I’m scared they’re all laughing

So I make the joke first

If I beat 'em to the punchline

Then I can’t get hurt

Yeah, I swear to God I’m trying

But I don’t know how to be

How to be a good friend to

The voice inside my head that’s telling me I’m okay

Entertain it for a second, then I push it away

Yeah, I swear to God I’m trying

But I don’t know how to be

How to be a good friend to me
