Detailed Analysis
The lyrics contain a few notable content concerns. There is mild profanity ('shit out of luck'), which appears twice as part of the recurring chorus. The song also references alcohol ('last call drink'), suggesting drinking until feeling unwell ('green in your face'). Thematically, the song deals with feelings of being forgotten or neglected, mental health struggles ('it's in my head,' 'I don't sleep'), and general hopelessness, expressed through the recurring metaphor of a worm dried out in the sun. There is also imagery that could be considered mildly disturbing ('letting the worms inside in my head,' 'cuts like a bullet straight through my skull'). The tone is melancholic and self-deprecating throughout. There is no sexual content, and the violence is metaphorical rather than literal. The mature emotional themes and alcohol references, combined with the mild profanity and dark mental health undertones, make this more suitable for teens and older listeners rather than young children.

Lyrics
It's in my head Overgrown Like the mold on the old Food in the fridge Found a friend Who's got nowhere to be You kinda scared but you wanted to see Cuts like a bullet Straight through my skull and It's letting the worms inside in my head Wish I could ignore it Let night turn to morning Now I'm laying in bed but I don't sleep Like a worm caught in the sun Dried up and shit out of luck Like a worm caught in the sun Dried up and shit out of luck Check Where'd you go I know I can tell you You forgot about me My car isn't running Jump it every morning If I have a place that i need to be It's like A bad headache The last call drink Before your back at your place To sleep all day And now the green in your face Speaks the case You're just a ball to the chain Like a worm caught in the sun Dried up and shit out of luck Like a worm caught in the sun Dried up and shit out of luck Check Like a worm caught in the sun Dried up and shit out of luck Like a worm caught in the sun Dried up and shit out of luck
