[Verse 1]
I always get stuck in my head
I'm so fixated on regrets
And so damn scared to go to bed right now

Oh I'm terrified of quiet
Got to the point I won't try it
Put on Friends and let the laughter drown it out

[Pre-Chorus]
Another night's sleep on the couch
Dried up tears all on my cheeks now
Another fight that's taken me out
All my fears making me so weak now

[Chorus]
So why am I like this
Why is this me
Why can't I hide this
Why can't I just be
Oh why am I like this
Why can't I be free
Why am I like this
Why don't I like me

[Verse 2]
I get so caught up in my mind
No flaw in me that I can't find
When it's just myself and I, I'm defenseless

Why do I torture myself so
Why can't I ever let it go
Why do I always become so relentless

[Pre-Chorus]
Another night's sleep on the couch
Dried up tears all on my cheeks now
Another fight that's taken me out
All my fears making me so weak now

[Chorus]
So why am I like this
Why is this me
Why can't I right this
Why can't I just be
Oh why am I like this
Why can't I be free
Why am I like this
Why don't I like me

[Bridge]
I wonder why
I can keep going all day
But the moment the sun goes down
I get in my own way

I wonder why
I still listen to what I say
It's like the moment night comes round
All my doubts are on display

[Chorus]
So why am I like this
Why is this me
Why can't I defy this
Why can't I just be
Oh why am I like this
Why can't I be free
Why am I like this
Why don't I like me
