🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Confusing what is real
  • There's something inside me
  • That pulls beneath the surface
  • Consuming, confusing

Echo the hook

  • To find myself again
  • My walls are closing in
  • Without a sense of confidence
  • I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take
