Anti-Hero

[Verse 1]
I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
Midnights become my afternoons
When my depression works the graveyard shift, all of the people
I've ghosted stand there in the room

[Hook]
It's me
Me

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
I am the monster on the hill
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
Pierced through the heart but never killed

[Hook]
It's me
Me

[Bridge]
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
She thinks I left them in the will
The family gathers 'round and reads it and then someone screams out
"He's laughing up at us from Hell"

[Hook]
It's me
(It's me)
(It's me)

[Chorus]
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

[Bridge]
I should not be left to my own devices
They come with prices and vices
I end up in crisis
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
Like some kind of congressman?
I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day, I'll watch as you're leaving
Life or lose all this meaning

[Chorus]
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
