I’m a Mess Lyrics by Chris James

Dopamine Detox

2023

[Intro]
Please hold the line
The next available representative will answer the phone shortly
[Verse 1]
It's crazy to think
And crazy to know
The things that made you wanna leave now
Feels so long ago
Am I a thief? (Am I a thief?)
For stealing your time
Throw your minutes overboard
And turn them into mine, hmm
[Chorus]
Ease up, all in
We're walking on the line
Too fast, too slow
I never made my mind up
I don't, I'm a mess, I know
Too far, so close
I never get it right up when you're down
Maybe another time 'round
We'll go, I'm a mess, I know, hmm
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, maybe no one else can take my bullshit
So, I had it while you cool it
Hold my mind so I don't lose it, lose it
Ooh, even if we make it through this nonsense
Would you give up hope? Be honest
Will you love me if I lost it, lost it, lost it?
[Interlude]
Your estimated wait time will be 420 minutes
Thank you for your patience
[Verse 2]
Go save yourself, pardon the trouble
No hammer will burst this bubble
Maybe we're just illusion, oh, I couldn't tell
We're dreaming up more solutions, run to someone else
Pray or say something before I do
Hit the rock bottom, nothing left for me to lose, baby
Thinking lately
I don't think talking this hard is gonna change me (oh)
[Chorus]
Ease up, all in
We're walking on the line
Too fast, too slow
I never made my mind up
I don't, I'm a mess (I'm a mess), I know, hmm
Too far, so close
I never get it right up when you're down
Maybe another time 'round
We'll go, I'm a mess (I'm a mess), I know, hmm
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, maybe no one else can take my bullshit
So, I had it while you cool it
Hold my mind so I don't lose it, lose it
Ooh, even if we make it through this nonsense
Would you give up hope? Be honest
Will you love me if I lost it, lost it, lost it?
