In My Head Lyrics by Nell Mescal

Teeth - EP

2023

[Verse 1]
I look for you in other people
I nearly found you in a stranger
And he tells me that I'm pretty
But he don't see me as an equal
And I was thinking of your mom's house
And every picture that you live in
I wanna crawl inside the photos
But then reality, it kicks in
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm alone in this bed, yeah, he'll leave me for dead
He will rise with the sun, place a kiss on my head
Like he cares, like he cares
I know time wasn't kind, oh, it left us bеhind
And I start to forget all the reasons I criеd at your hands
Was it all in my head? Was it all in my—?
[Chorus]
You cut me loose
When I hung around
Yeah, I wanted you
But you wanted out
I bite my tongue
As he pins me down
'Cause I think of you
At your mother's house
[Verse 2]
I look for you in the wrong places
That's why I'm crashing every party
And I'm clinging to the smokers
Until they're calling me a taxi
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know how I could turn this around
But my fingers are blue, gripping memories of you
'Cause I care, I still care
I wasn't alright, but he turned off the light
Was too tired to talk, so, I built it all up in my head
Was it all in my head? Was it all in my—?
[Chorus]
You cut me loose
When I hung around
Yeah, I wanted you
But you wanted out
And I bite my tongue
As he pins me down
'Cause I think of you
At your mother's house
[Outro]
I wake up, I wake up with a deathwish
Was it love? Tell me, love, if I'm haunting you
Do you sleep? Do you sleep with the light on?
When you bleed, hope it all comes back to you
I wake up, I wake up with a deathwish
Was it love? Tell me, love, if I'm haunting you
Do you sleep? Do you sleep with the light on?
When you bleed, hope it all comes back to you
