Are you seeing this?

Was it your breath, or kiss

Upon my neck like this

-

Just like you took my dying wish

Now I'm all covered in red from your lips

-

Tweaking from seeking the way to your hips

-

Schizo from your finger tips

-

Can't seem to stop this twitch

-

Are you tuning in?

Asking if the listener is paying attention or understanding the situation.

The crowd is hollering

Describing a public event with a crowd, anticipation, and pressure to perform.

Jump, jump, jump, jump again

Camera crew is wearing thin

They wanna see me explode upon, emoticon

Oh, don't you see the road I'm on?

Baby, turn on the news

Oh, I'm a wreckening

They think that they should lock me in

A rubber room and then make sure I don't hurt myself

Or someone else, or even worse, a nurse

-

Are you getting me?

Addressing the misconception of the speaker's mental state and expressing resilience.

They think that I'm crazy

But, baby, this cold straight white jacket

Don't even phase me

Oh, I was playing them, tried to give me lithium

Come on, baby, let me in

Flashing lights are blinding all my sights
