Ibuprofen

[Verse 1]

I'm crying on the floor, rocking back and forth

And Rob is crying too, just like the night before

And Verity is holding me so tightly

Saying, "You cannot give up" and she is crying slightly

And Russ walks over, crying as well

'Cause he heard me shouting how much I hate myself

He said, "No, not you, no, not you

You make us all so happy, you know that, don't you?"

[Chorus]

I'm so emotional, I felt unlovable

But they love me so dearly, I must just be wrong

'Cause they keep me, keep me safe

Keep me safe, keep me safe

K-k-k-keep me, keep me safe

Stuck within this maze encompassing my brain

[Verse 2]

Still feel ripples from stones thrown, didn't just disturb the surface

Now everyone around me shows me I have a purpose

To love and be loved, show others they ain't worthless

I can love myself, I just need to learn it

I continue to unpick my tragic disposition

Can I be authentically happy, no need for these incisions?

No need for a lobotomy when the brain's just working

I am hurting, I am hurting, could you be my ibuprofen?

[Chorus]

I'm so emotional, I felt unlovable

But they love me so dearly, I must just be wrong

And they keep me, keep me safe

Stuck within this maze encompassing my brain

Keep me, keep me safe

Keep me safe, keep me safe

K-k-k-keep me, keep me safe

Stuck within this maze encompassing my brain

[Bridge]

There's a picture of Ben smiling so sweetly

Didn't know I took a photo when he looked up to see me

There's a picture of Ben smiling so sweetly

Didn't know I took a photo, he just looked up to see me

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause they keep me, keep me safe

Keep me safe, keep me safe

K-k-k-keep me, keep me safe

Stuck within this maze encompassing my brain

[Chorus]

So I'll bring the ink and I'll stand in the sink (Keep me, keep me safe)

And you can tattoo my eyeballs bright pink (Keep me safe, keep me safe)

And I'll bring the ink and I'll stand in the sink (K-k-k-keep me, keep me safe)

And you can tattoo my eyeballs bright pink (Keep me safe, keep me safe)

And keep me, keep me safe

Keep me safe, keep me safe

K-k-k-keep me, keep me safe

Stuck within this maze encompassing my brain

[Outro]

Keep me, keep me safe

Keep me safe, keep me safe

K-k-k-keep me, keep me safe
