Well, you were the aftermath
Of every judgment
So cold by the sweat that
You’ll waste away
And you carry your enemies
But they’re so familiar
I’m sick of the company
So I cull the shame

And I know you’ll say how I’m a burden
Yeah, do your worst all at once
I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking (thinking)
And it’s not the voice of all the others
You’ve only said it to yourself
I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking
They come to feel like things we’re saying to ourselves

An inch from my ears again
You should be sorry
A solemn man
A better song to fix my problems
I’m tired of your questioning
You’re cut down too easily
And I don’t know what’s good for me
I can’t decide

And I know you’ll say how I’m a burden
Yeah, do your worst all at once
I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking (thinking)
And though they sound like one another
You’ve only said it to yourself
I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking
Now these voices have become our own

An inch from my ears again
You should be sorry
A solemn man
A better song to fix my problems
I’m tired of your questioning
You’re cut down too easily
And I don’t know what’s good for me
I can’t decide

And I know you’ll say how I’m a burden
Yeah, do your worst all at once
I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking
And it’s not the voice of all the others
You’ve only said it to yourself

I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking (thinking, thinking, thinking)
And I know you’ll say how I’m a burden
Yeah, do your worst all at once
I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking (thinking, thinking, thinking)

And though they sound like one another
You’ve only said it to yourself
I know what you want from me, from me
I know what you’re thinking
(Thinking, thinking, thinking, thinking, think-)

Sometimes, the inner voice is encouraging
Calling for you to run those final few yards
You're nearly there, keep going, keep going, keep going keep going
It will be all okay in the end
