"Poster Child" lyrics

I could blame the parents
Blame the devil in the details
Oh, he's getting pretty heavy on my shoulder
I try to be transparent
While I'm building up a brick wall
It gets higher every time you move in closer

So I spray paint my name in graffiti on it and call it art
Romanticizing my tendency to make easy hard

I'm sorry I'm stupid
Damn it, I'm dumb
Poster child for screwing everything up
Including us
I'll admit it, yeah, I think you're the one
So I don't know why I
Don't know why I

Treat you like a sleeper
Like you'll wake up any day now
And you'll realize all your feelings were a bad dream
'Cause it's the only way to love you
Like I want to is to love me first
Honey, this is gonna hurt

Oh God, I'm sorry I'm stupid
Damn it, I'm dumb
Poster child for screwing everything up
Including us
I'll admit it, yeah, I think you're the one
So I don't know why
I don't know why
I'm a loser
Start placing your bets
Bet I'll hold the trophy for having nobody left
I'll be the first to admit it, you're as good as it gets
So I don't know why I
Don't know why I

Push every good one away
Call me a runaway train
Until you stepped on the tracks
And now I'm slamming the breaks
I'll leave you out in the rain
Then hate this bed that I made
Without you in it, come back
Don't laugh, I'm sorry

I'm stupid
Damn it, I'm dumb
The poster child for screwing everything up
Including us
I'll admit it, yeah, I think you're the one
So I don't know why
I don't know why
I'm a loser
Start placing your bets
Bet I'll hold the trophy for having nobody left
I'll be the first to admit it, you're as good as it gets
So I don't know why I
Don't know why I
Don't know why
