"The Ways I Punish Myself" lyrics

I second-guess every word I say
Try to find a mirror that I don't hate
I get hungry but I never complain
I don't interrupt, don't speak too loud
I'm confident but not too proud
Do what I'm told, and I never get old

I'll be harder on myself than anyone could ever be
You don't have to yell
You don't have to hit me
I don't need no help
If you couldn't tell
I don't need no help
Punishing myself

I don't ever think of my own needs
Set my standards too high to meet
And I will never say, "I disagree"
And if I choose to sleep around
Don't want 'em talkin' all over town
I got a two-drink limit now

I'll be harder on myself than anyone could ever be
You don't have to yell
You don't have to hit me
I don't need no help
If you couldn't tell
I don't need no help
Punishing myself

Nothing I say is ever good enough
Alone at night, I'm chewing myself up
Oh, oh, mmm
Nothing I say is ever good enough
Alone at night, I'm chewing myself up
