"In My Head" lyrics

I should be an author
The way that I can twist every word, every story and turn you into the hero
I'll make you the guy who gets the girl and the glory

Yeah, I should be a doctor
The way that I keep stitching myself back up before you even get to reload
I bet I'll be back in your bed by tomorrow

I could be everything I'm not
Could play every single part
And you'll still call it whatever
I could do every single job
Give you everything you want
And you'd still look for something better

And I try
To get you off my mind

But you're still in my head, head, head
Always in my head, head, head
And I can't help but think about the life I'd live if I could just get over this
You're still in my head, head, head

If this was a movie
You'd be on the screen
And even if you were mean
It would sound so poetic (Oh)
They would be applauding before they got to the credits

Yeah, you should be an actor
The way you're making a scene, and how you make me believe every word, every sentence (Oh)
You don't have to say it, I know that I sound pathetic

I could be everything I'm not
Could play every single part
And you'll still call it whatever
I could do every single job
Give you everything you want
And you'd still look for something better

And I try
To get you off my mind

But you're still in my head, head, head
Always in my head, head, head
And I can't help but think about the life I'd live if I could just get over this
You're still in my head, head, head

You're still in my head
In my head
You're still in my head
Head, head
And I can't help but think about the life I'd live if I could just get over this
You're still in my head, head, head
You're still in my head
