You're a mess, tangled with your confidence
You think you haven't sinned
Well, you're unstoppable
Your walls are impassible, oh

I think you're better off looking alone
'Cause the boys that chase your hips can just go find their way home
And at the end of the day you think to yourself
"My body is a product being sold on a shelf"

Tell me I can change, tell me I can change

Well, I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death
Well, just look at what you've done
Don't you dare forget the sun, love

Don't forget

Cold, white walls keep you from your pad and pen
You just wanna stab again
I can't believe it's half this hard
You never knew your mind was dark, no

I think you're better off looking alone
'Cause the boys that chase your hips can just go find their way home
You can dig so deep for scars
You never knew your mind was dark

Come on and breathe with me, oh
Breathe with me, oh, oh, oh

Well, I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death
Well, just look at what you've done
Don't you dare forget the sun, love

You look down on me so casually
In everything I know
You look down on me but not right at me
Did I wreck this broken home?

Dear diary
Life is trying me
Can I get a sign?
Or a two of mind, a piece of mind?
Oh, can I get a sign? (A sign)
Can I get a sign? (I know)

Well, I know you lay in bed (in bed)
Contemplating your own death
Well, just look at what you've done
Don't you dare forget the sun, love

You look down on me so casually
In everything I know
You look down on me but not right at me
Is it plain to see that life is trying me?

Oh, life is trying me
Life is trying

Can I think of something?
Gotta think of something

My Interpretation
Music can have several different meanings to different people. It all really depends on who you are and the experiences you have had. This is what I got from the lyrics:

It's a song about someone (likely a female) that is a suicidal psychopath. They try to hide their insanity, but at one point, it grows to be too much and they try to kill themselves. They were interrupted and taken to an insane asylum, "Cold white walls" being their cell. At first I thought that the phrase "you just want to stab again" was referencing that this person is in prison for murder. After listening closer, I realized that it was talking about self harm. I'm pretty sure you get the idea.

@TheCryingRaven I think that it's less being insane more of if you are suicidal and actually act one it and show signs of wanting or possibly wanting to try again they may be checked into an "insane" asylum, speaking from experience

forgot to add that being depressed and suicidal is a mental illness so technically the person being portrayed is "insane" in away, it's just unlikely it is psychopathy
