Therapy
Rex Orange County Song Lyrics

Welcome, welcome

Make yourself at home and take a seat

I'll be your host for the next hour

So get as comfy as can be

I'll do my best to tell you this story

I mean it is a story about me

About how I came up

And fell down, and then, I found peace.

To set the scene

I arrived age 17 and didn't know nothing

But I kept my ears open, took it in

I was always listening

I told the world who I was

Fast forward two years

Two albums out, I wish I didn't say so much

But I can't take it back now

So, growing up in public wasn't great

No, but I wouldn't ever trade it in for a life less insane

The higher the highs, the lower the lows

But I'd rather have extremes than have a boring life, you know?

And even in my darkest hour, I remembered why I'm here

Never said what I was truly feeling till it weighed the most, for many years

Now I'd say, when your life changes, you should pipe up, maybe sit down

Speak to someone you can spend the time with

I mean I don't know, that's what I did

The therapist knows who I really am

They know me just as well as someone can

There's nothing in the world they're expecting of me

I'm simply here to speak

And nothing can surprise them now

I turn up and I let it all out

There's no one in the world that they need me to be

So I'll be myself and we'll see.

2023 and I'm going in

I checked myself in age 22 and no, I don't regret a thing

I wanna say thank you to my family for always putting up with things

And a big shout out to steve and linda, for taking me under their wing and taking time

And the same goes to damian, who pulled me out the grave and showed me how to live this life

And whatever comes my way

I'll practise every day, just give me sixty minutes, once a week, and little bit of space

Soon, I'll be in a better place

Watch this...

I'm not saying it's the only way but shit, I couldn't do it on my own

New year, new me yeah yeah, this time I'm really in the zone

Everyone's just searching for someone to be in love with

And tryna find the thing they love to do, that can also maybe bring the bread in

Everybody has a stage these days, anyone can entertain

We all need a bit of validation and that's ok

All I really want, is to feel at peace and to find my place

Hey, maybe it's just an endless search

Alone here on this earth and if so, that's ok.

I wouldn't be here now if I'd failed

To take the time to care for myself

I never thought that things would get as bad as they were

I recharged and returned

And if you're sick of going through hell

Just know, that I've been right there as well

It always goes away after time passes by

So stick around and try.
