Keep Me Out

I wake up wondering how I got here again

Another night I swore I'd never have to live through

I tell myself that I can stop whenever I want

But there's always one more thing I need to get through

I know exactly where this goes

I know the damage, still I go

I tell myself it's just tonight

And lie

Keep me out of my head

Keep me out of my head

'Cause I don't wanna know what happens

When there's nothing left to take

And I keep reaching for

The things that leave me wanting more

I know exactly what I'm doing

But I do it anyway

So keep me out, keep me out

Keep me out of my head

I got so good at making sure nobody gets too close

I give them what they came for, then I leave before they know

And if I make a mess of everything I touch

Well, at least I never have to wonder if it's love

I know exactly where this goes

I know the damage, still I go

I tell myself it's just tonight

And lie

Keep me out of my head

Keep me out of my head

'Cause I don't wanna know what happens

When there's nothing left to take

And I keep reaching for

The things that leave me wanting more

I know exactly what I'm doing

But I do it anyway

So keep me out, keep me out

Keep me out of my head

And I can blame it on the bottle

I can blame it on the bed

I can blame it on the people

Who keep getting in my head

But I know where the trouble starts

And I know where it ends

It's getting harder to pretend

I don't know myself by now

Keep me out of my head

Keep me out of my head

'Cause I don't wanna know what happens

When there's nothing left to take

And I keep reaching for

The things that leave me wanting more

I know exactly what I'm doing

But I do it anyway

So keep me out, keep me out

Keep me out of my head

Keep me out of my head

Keep me out of my head

I know exactly what I'm doing

But I do it anyway
