I’ve been lost alone inside my mind
Where the devil on my shoulders crying wolf tonight.
I’ve started thinking that he’s right.
“How could the sum of someone’s life be them believing their own lies?”

But I know a self-serving lullaby
That’ll help me sleep at night.
It smothers me with sweet denial.

Sing myself a crooked melody
Where I tell myself that it’s gonna be alright.
Yeah, it sets my soul on fire, but I’m gonna be alright.
If I lie myself to sleep then I’m gonna be alright,
As long as I don’t know.

I’ve been lost alone inside my head
Where the devil on my shoulder’s crying wolf again.
I’ve started thinking that I’m better off dead.
“How could the sum of someone’s life be them believing their own lies?”

Sing myself a crooked melody
Where I tell myself that it’s gonna be alright.
Yeah, it sets my soul on fire, but I’m gonna be alright.
If I lie myself to sleep then I’m gonna be alright.

I know that I lie myself to sleep every single night.
Inside my mind, I lie.

I know someday the jury will call
And they will say
That I am a fraud, an imposter, a liar.
Deep down I’ll know that I agree with them.

Sing myself a crooked melody
Where I tell myself that it’s gonna be alright.
Yeah, it sets my soul on fire, but I’m gonna be alright.
If I lie myself to sleep then I’m gonna be alright.

  1. I’m watching the ad for this song right now. Oh my gosh I’m so glad you guys have crossed paths with me again. I want to cry 😢

  2. This sounds good but it sounds very reminiscent of dayseekers new album Dark Sun. I wonder if they were influenced or produced by dayseeker/ dayseekers producer
