"I Can't Help Myself" lyrics

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

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

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)

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

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

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

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

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
