i let myself down - sunday night low lyrics

[intro]
oh*oh
oh*yeah*yeah

[verse 1]
why do i always let people get under my skin?
open up the door, let ’em walk right in
give them everything i got, but they’d never reciprocate
and turn my back on the ones who do anything, that’s my biggest mistake
call it empathy, call it weakness, maybe it’s both
i pour myself out, then i end up broke
try to push for change, but the cycle rewinds
every promise i make to myself, i undermine!

[pre*chorus 1]
maybe therapy would help me untangle the mess
but who would wanna listen to the weight on my chest?
convinced myself my problems aren’t heavy enough
so, i bury them deep and pretend i’m tough

[chorus]
i let myself down all the time
depression drags me underneath
emotions drowning out my speech
i don’t know how to channel pain
i don’t know how to make it change
[verse 2]
there’s violence in my silence when under so much pressure
it spills out in bursts, leaves destruction in its wake
i hate the way i lash out, hate the way i sound
i’m a prisoner of rage when the walls fall down
depression keeps me cornered, i can’t find air
a flood of emotion i can’t repair
i tell myself: “i’ll be okay!”

[pre*chorus 2]
but i’m tangled in the ropes of the things i don’t show
maybe therapy would help me find a release
but i minimize the damage, convince myself it’s weak
tell myself: “my story’s not significant enough”
so, i choke on the silence instead of opening up

[chorus]
i let myself down all the time
depression drags me underneath
emotions drowning out my speech
i don’t know how to channel pain
i don’t know how to make it change

[interlude]
oh, woah*woah
ah*ah*ah
[outro]
why do i let people in just to watch myself break?
why do i give, when i know what’s at stake?
i try to change, but the mirror just stares
and i’m stuck with the weight of a life i can’t repair
