After unsuccessful attempts to quit opioids by herself, Allison (Florence Pugh) sells off her father’s Rolex watch to pay for a stint in a rehab clinic. The clinic has a piano, so Allison sits down and eventually writes this song expressing her guilt and self-loathing over the turn her life has take...
[Verse 1]
I woke up today, at least that much is true
I saw what people see, what a year this made of me?
I tried a hundred times but each time I thought of you
[Pre-Chorus]
I hate myself
I hate myself
I fucking hate myself
[Chorus]
And I want days of pain
Oh, to feel the things I need
To pay off this shame
And I know that makes me broken
I know that makes me weak
I guess I'll put my armor back on now
[Verse 2]
I found a way but I turned around
One step to start but I'd rather fall down
Too much of a coward to say, "I'm wrong"
Too much of a coward to admit I need
Help me, please
[Chorus]
And I want days of pain
Oh, to feel the things I need
To pay off this shame
And I know that makes me broken
I know that makes mе weak
Will you help me put my armor back on now?
[Bridge]
I hatе myself
I hate myself
I fucking hate myself
I hate myself
I hate myself
I fucking hate myself
[Outro]
Try to fix yourself, and so they'd say to me
Try to fix myself
Then know how hard it will be
