Where the World Can't Hurt Me

I never thought I'd think like this again,
But I guess that's what life brings
And so I lie hidden by my sheets in my bed
Where the world can't hurt me
I'm staying awake till 4am and thinking about what could have been,
But that's not what's meant to be!
And so I write down everything that I'm feeling
To guide my thoughts away from me

Oooooos

Surrounded by a world full of people like me,
Yet I feel so lonely
There's a ghost in my place,
Not a name or a face, but he looks just like me
I'm tired of people looking through me,
Thinking they know everything about me,
They don't know what they can't see
And so I find myself back in bed,
In my head where my thoughts can run free

Cause this is my reality where misery looks good on me,
And I can't get away from the pain that seems to follow me!
Everybody seems to think that life was meant to be easy
If it's meant to be than I think something must be wrong with me!
I know that the life we live can feel so alone
So l go, oh I go to the world in my head that's become my home!

So I sink into the hole that I once came to know
As the low of my self-esteem
Looking up from the bottom,
I can see how they got me buried in my anxiety
Well maybe I didn't make it clear,
That feelings aren't meant to just disappear,
Though that's what it seems to me!
So I'II just stay down here all alone my dear
Where the world can't hurt me

Cause this is my reality where misery looks good on me,
And I can't get away from the pain that seems to follow me!
Everybody seems to think that life was meant to be easy
But if it's meant to be than I think something must be wrong with me!
I know that the life we live can feel so alone
So l go, oh I go to the world in my head that's become my home!

I just can't stop thinking of what this is doing to me
I've got this sinking feeling in my chest and I can't breathe
No I can't breathe, oh tell me God am I the only one like me?

Well here I am thinking like this again
Cause I guess that's what life brings
I'm losing myself in my head again
Knowing that the world can't hurt me.
