lyrics & chords (capo 3):
Am - (G) - F - Em - F - G (the first G is just a quick passing chord)
I'm on an overcrowded train
fighting an overcrowded brain
and all these bags under my eyes
hold up my compromise
maybe I should change just everything, anything
did you not learn anything in school?
could have played by the rules
could be happy in a different way
struggling with the London rent
they said it would be hard now I know what they meant
I lose sleep, head stuck in the cereal bowl
but I’m here for the music, I know
distracted!
can I say what I mean, can I mean what I say
why can’t I figure out how I feel when I wake up everyday
(pre:)
Dm - G - (Em) (Em just a quick passing chord)
Dm - G
facing the world with the same old logic
overanalysing everything is tragic
and maybe some things they will never make sense
so I tackle it all but I'm not making a dent
(chorus:)
F - C - G
F - C - Em
and I think my brain is breaking
and it’s just myself I’ve been blaming
it’s frustrating
I just wanna know why
and I know no good will come of it
I wish that I could just be done with it
but I’m sinking
I just wanna know why i’m overthinking
I'm an outcast, to be left behind
I'm an extrovert with an anxious mind
there's a danger that I'm gonna pour my heart out to a total stranger
In a bar
And they're not gonna wanna hear
No, they're just there to sip their beer
not hear about problems to solve
“God this girl's so self involved”
I play it out my head
I'm trying to make good choices
I hear voices
they can't pick one side
help! i look so stupid
sitting there tongue tied
meltdown! all i can hear
is code red, code red
got a problem in the control centre
in my own head
(pre)
(chorus)

Can you tone it down to less than 10 talents
reminds me a little bit of twenty one pilots vibe and i LOVE it
I don't think I've ever seen someone so passionately expressing their music. I'm honestly absolutely in love with your style of singing. Those facial expressions, and especially the lyrics of this song. I'm so happy for you that you'll be able to release even more music you're passionate about and I'm already looking forward to it! 😊🌻
Thumbs if you're overanalysing everything :( And you know it's no good for you but you let it ruin everything.
Who knew Orla could like . . . rap?!
"there's a danger that i might just pour my heart out to a total stranger in a bar they're not gonna wanna hear. they're just there to sip their beer not hear about problems to solve and 'god this girl's so self-involved!' " I LOVE THIS SONG
All the lyrics from "I'm an extrovert with an anxious mind" to "control centre inside my head" are so perfect they gave me actual goosebumps
you need an album and we need it now
I just want you know I really appreciate your "I'm trying to vocalize properly, I don't have any time to look cool for you" faces.
Oh Orla, i love this! x
"I'm an extrovert with an anxious mind" shoot that's me
100% Singing Voice
Queen of lyrics! What a song, gosh!
Insane. I haven’t related to a song so much in a very long while
Okay so i just realised the background song at the patreon bit is "I Go Crazy" , we've been listening to it b4 and we didn't know y'all!!
This is why I love your channel so much! Every original is so unique! 🙌
HER ACOUSTIC GUITAR IS THE MOTHER OF DODIE’S UKULELE OMFG
Your timing is amazing - I'm being destroyed by anxiety this week and it's a year since I completely lost my mind from it. Sure I've come a long way but every time I have a bad patch it's so scary to think of going back! Overthinking is such a painful flaw with some of our minds and I'd love to be able to make it stop and have a proper social life and relationships that don't stress me out.
For some reason you always upload when I'm having an awful day. Today I was broken up with. So thank you for saving my day a bit.
I struggle A LOT with anxiety, and it's been super bad again recently and this was so accurate it made me cry. Thank you so much for turning this into a RUclips video, I needed this ❤️
