Lyrics It doesn't feel safe in here This isolated atmosphere These four white walls around me ain't saying much Maybe it's the lack of sleep at night But I can't look me in the eye Who even is she?

YES! I've been waiting for this instant masterpiece to finally release! All the teasers on Tiktok got me so hyped. (I was gonna go to bed at the time of listening which is past Midnight) This was well worth the hype! Thank you so much, as soon as it started till the end! I feel a connection to this, I as well struggle with my mental health. There needs to be more songs like this to spread the word. Speaking openly and properly about the topic of mental health should be normalized! Now I'm going to try and calm down and attempt sleep, BUT I'll be back to give it a few hundred + listens until I memorize it enough to blast this and sing it while dancing like a crazy person around my room!
All the people comparing Taylor to Avril Lavigne are insane and just throwing out the first female singer that comes to their minds lol. If anything she gives closer vibes to like Bonnie from Stand Atlantic.
My best friend is getting married in September. She loves your short video cover of "First Date" is it at all possible for you to make a full version so we can play it at the wedding!? You have a beautiful voice by the way ❤

Lyrics
It doesn't feel safe in here
This isolated atmosphere
These four white walls around me ain't saying much
Maybe it's the lack of sleep at night
But I can't look me in the eye
Who even is she? When did we fall out of touch?
I would pray, but I don't know how
I'm trying to find the words, but they won't come out
[Chorus]
So I'm here going through the motions, living in my head
I don't really know if I'm alive or if I'm dead
Sorry if you speak, didn't hear a word you said
I'm going through the motions, going through the motions
[Verse 2]
If I could just get some space
To take a break from my own brain
I'd pack my bag with evеry last thing that I have
Oh, but then the rеality sets in
And maybe running won't change this
And I'm too scared to make changes anyway
[Chorus]
So I'm here going through the motions, living in my head
I don't really know if I'm alive or if I'm dead
Sorry if you speak, didn't hear a word you said
I'm going through the motions, going through the motions
It's not safe in here
I'm scared I'm gonna fucking lose it
Going through the motions, living in my head
Living in my head, I'm living in my, living in my head
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Head, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
❤ time to blast it on repeat HECK YEAH finally now it can live outside my head for all to listen to
