Strange Little Ache

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Woke up tangled in a feeling I can't name

Something heavy sitting low behind my ribs

I keep scrolling through the reasons looking for a frame

But the picture's blurry and the glass has splinters

Pre-Chorus

I don't know what I'm supposed to feel

I don't know which version of me is real

Chorus

I'm confused and I'm hurting

And I can't find the words to say it

Strange little ache in a strange little place

I'm confused and I'm hurting

And I can't find the words to say it

Why won't my own heart explain itself

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh (explain itself)

Oh-oh (explain itself)

Verse 2

Yesterday I laughed at something stupid on the screen

Today I'm crying in a parking lot alone

Every single signal pointing somewhere in between

And my reflection doesn't recognize my tone

Pre-Chorus

I don't know what I'm supposed to want

I don't know why my own head feels so blunt

Chorus

I'm confused and I'm hurting

And I can't find the words to say it

Strange little ache in a strange little place

I'm confused and I'm hurting

And I can't find the words to say it

Why won't my own heart explain itself

Bridge

Maybe feelings don't come with a manual

Maybe pain is just the body keeping score

I used to think I knew myself so well

Now I'm knocking at a door I closed before

Knocking at a door I closed before

Chorus

I'm confused and I'm hurting

And I can't find the words to say it

Strange little ache in a strange little place

I'm confused and I'm hurting

And I can't find the words to say it

Why won't my own heart explain itself

Drop

Mm-hmm (explain itself)

Mm-hmm (explain itself)

Mm-hmm (explain itself)

Mm
