My chest gets tight again today The kind that makes me pause and wait Like standing on some frozen lake Not knowing if the surface breaks Every breath feels borrowed time Every step could cross the line I'm walking on thin ice Never know what's underneath Can't trust my own mind When it tells me what to believe Always second-guessing Every word I try to speak I'm walking on thin ice And it's wearing on me The room goes quiet when I talk My hands won't stop, they twist and rock I check the door about ten times Then wonder if I'm losing my mind Every breath feels borrowed time Every step could cross the line I'm walking on thin ice Never know what's underneath Can't trust my own mind When it tells me what to believe Always second-guessing Every word I try to speak I'm walking on thin ice And it's wearing on me Some days I fake it pretty well Put on a show, nobody can tell But late at night when I'm alone The worry cuts right to the bone What if they see right through my skin What if I'm breaking from within I'm walking on thin ice Never know what's underneath Can't trust my own mind When it tells me what to believe Always second-guessing Every word I try to speak I'm walking on thin ice And it's wearing on me My chest gets tight again today But maybe that's okay
