[Chorus 1]
Why would I spend the rest of my days unhappy?
Why would I spend the rest of this year alone?
When I can go therapy, when I can go therapy
When I can go therapy, two times a day
[Chorus 2]
Why would I spend the rest of this week so bitter?
And all that listenin' is makin' you bitter too
When I can go therapy, when I can go therapy
When I can go therapy, two times a day
[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be around me
And I don't blame you if you're blocking all my calls
Been awhile since I've been sleeping soundly
Most nights I lie awake, between 2 and 4
Work is stressing me out
And after all this time, it's still never enough
[Chorus 1]
Why would I spend the rest of my days unhappy?
Why would I spend the rest of this year alone?
When I can go therapy, when I can go therapy
When I can go therapy, two times a day
[Verse 2]
I care more about what you think than I care about the music
When I get cross with you, I'm surprised you care at all
I figure if I had a lifetime of time left
Well shame on me if I don't get to use it well
Yeah I'm stressin' you out
And at the way it's goin', you'll need it more than me
[Chorus 1]
Why would I spend the rest of my days unhappy?
Why would I spend the rest of this year alone?
When I can go therapy, when I can go therapy
When I can go therapy, two times a day
[Bridge]
Someone, help me, turn me 'round
I'm a victim
Hate the sound of my own voice
Turn it down
And all I do is aggravate you
[Chorus 2]
Why would I spend the rest of my days so bitter?
And all that listenin' is makin' you bitter too
When I can go therapy, when I can go therapy
When I can go therapy, two times a day
