[Verse 1]
I always start at the very end
Made up who you are before you walk in
Here in my mind
I'm writing your lines

[Verse 2]
First I'll be every little thing that you want
Then you'll take a little too long to respond
In the back of my mind
Already saying goodbye
I hope you can't tell

[Chorus]
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself

[Verse 3]
I can feel myself getting too close
It's almost easier when I'm on my own
Here in my mind
I'm drawing a line

[Verse 4]
I'm trying to read your body language 'cross the table
Wish I could see behind your eyes into the future
Cause here in my mind
Think I'm starting to try
I hope you can't tell

[Chorus]
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself

[Verse 5]
The closer we get the further I am
The words that I meant stay stuck in my chest
The closer we get the further I am
You're under my skin I hope you can't tell

[Chorus]
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself

[Bridge]
(Here in my mind already said goodbye
Here in my mind I'm trying hard not to try)
(Here in my mind already said goodbye
Here in my mind I'm trying hard not to try)

[Chorus]
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself
I'm in my head, in my head
Getting ahead
I'm in my head getting ahead of myself
