Ariana Grande is back in our lives after dropping the official music video for “in my head” off of her album Thank U, Next which was released on February 8, 2019, by Republic Records. The album is loaded with emotional tracks that discuss personal matters for Ariana, including her break-up with fiance Pete Davidson and the death of her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller.
One of the standout tracks from the album was “in my head” — which was one of the most intimate songs on the project — and now we have the visual.
The visual was directed by Bardia Zeinali.
You can check out the official music video below.
Ariana Grande – ‘In My Head’ Music Video & Lyrics
[Intro: Doug Middlebrook]
Here’s the thing: you’re in love with a version of a person that you’ve created in your head, that you are trying to but cannot fix. Uh, the only person you can fix is yourself. I love you, this has gone on way too long. Enough is enough. I’m two blocks away, I’m coming over.
[Verse 1: Ariana Grande]
Painted a picture, I thought I knew you well
I got a habit of seeing what isn’t there
Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets
When you broke my heart, I said you only wanted half of me
[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
My imagination’s too creative
They see demon, I see angel, angel (Angel), angel
Without the halo, wingless angel
[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Falling, falling, but I never thought you’d leave me
Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh
I thought you were the one
But it was all in my head
It was all in my head (Skrrt, skrrt)
[Post-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Yeah, look at you (You), boy, I invented you
Your Gucci tennis shoes, runnin’ from your issues
Cardio good for the heart (For the heart)
I figured we could work it out, hmm
[Verse 2: Ariana Grande]
Painted a picture; I thought I drew you well
I had a vision, seeing what isn’t there
Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets
When you broke my heart, said you only wanted half of me
[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
My imagination’s too creative
They see Cain and I see Abel (Abel), Abel (Abel), Abel
I know you’re able, willin’ and able
[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Falling, falling, but I thought that you would need me
Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh
I thought that you were the one
But it was all in my head
It was all in my head (Skrrt, skrrt)
[Post-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Yeah, look at you (You), boy, I invented you
Your Gucci tennis shoes, runnin’ from your issues
Cardio good for the heart (For the heart)
I figured we could work it out, hmm
[Bridge: Ariana Grande]
Wanted you to grow, but, boy, you wasn’t budding
Everything you are made you everything you aren’t
I saw your potential without seein’ credentials
Maybe that’s the issue (Yeah, yeah)
Said maybe that’s the issue, ah
Can’t hold that sh*t against you, ah
Guess I did it to myself, yeah
Thought you were somebody else, you
[Outro]
Thought you were somebody else, you (You)
Thought you were somebody else, you
