I Can’t Help Myself

[Verse 1]
Another day, a new disguise
Waking up with bloodshot eyes
And a million little lies I've thrown together, oh
It's been so long since I laid it out
And I could use a friend to talk me down
Or maybe just spend a little time together

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm not quite sure how long it's gonna take
But I'm sick and tired of talking to myself, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, why
Do I keep it all inside
Keep pretending that I'm fine?
Oh, why, why
Do I hide behind these eyes?
All the tears I should've cried (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Oh, I keep telling myself that it's okay to ask for help
Oh, okay to need someone else (Someone else), someone
Oh, I keep telling myself that it's okay to ask for help
'Cause I know, I know I can't help myself
I can't help myself

[Verse 2]
I'm too grown up to be afraid
Too far gone for things to change
All these lies I keep believing, oh
I've held it in for too long now
And I could use a friend to talk it out
Or maybe just spend a little time together

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm not quite sure how long it's gonna take
But I'm sick and tired of doing this alone, oh

[Chorus]
Why, why
Do we keep it all inside
Keep pretending that we're fine?
Oh, why, why
Do we hide behind our eyes?
All the tears we should've cried (Yeah)
Oh, I keep telling myself
That it's okay to ask for help
Okay to need someone else (Someone else), someone
Oh, I keep telling myself that it's okay to ask for help
'Cause I know, I know I can't help myself
I can't help myself

[Outro]
Why, why
Do we keep it all inside
Keep pretending like we're fine?
Oh, why, why
Do we hide behind our eyes?
All the tears we should've cried
