When I was a kid
I thought that suffering made you special
So that's what I did
They gave me prizes for it and medals
They said, "oh, she's got potential"
And, "oh, she'll be succesful"
And I was just trying not to pop a blood vessel
They said, "I know it's stressful
To keep up with your schedule
But it's all in your head, it's all mental"
So do even better and don't learn to settle
If you breath for a second, you fall back a level
And if your demons are getting a bit hard to wrestle
It's all in your head, it's all mental
It's all mental
But I'm done placing blame
I've got the matches and gasoline but I refuse to light the flame
I've got the gun in my hand and the target in sight
But I choose not to aim
'Cause it's all in my head, it's all mental
And making other people sorry won't make me feel special
Yeah, it's all in my head, it's all mental
It's all mental
