Factory Settings

I don't need it, but do I want it
And if I want it, should I have it anyway
Could it be that by denying myself
I am in a worse place
And I tell myself relax
And I tell myself you're overreacting
To every little thing you do
And ever did, too

But then the pain sets in
And I know I did something good
Yeah, when it hurts just right
I think I might be
On the road to being somebody
Who is worthy of
Someone's love

Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be for me

I can't help it, but I can bear it
If I can bear it, should I care if I'm a mess
Could it be that by the time I've sorted
Through all of my distress
I've miraculously moved on
I miraculously have stumbled upon some
Brand new way to survive
Or even thrive

But then the pain sets in
And I know I did something good
Yeah, when it hurts just right
I think I might be
On the road to being somebody
Who is worthy of
Someone's love

Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be for me

Am I doing it wrong
How could everyone
Be so much smarter than me
I am defective
Return me to factory settings
What am I not getting
What don't I understand
How not to impose impossible demands
But just before I can fill my cup

Oh, the pain sets in
And I know I did something good
Yeah, when it hurts just right
I think I might be
On the road to being somebody
Who is worthy of
Someone's love

Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be for me

Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be
Is that how it's always going to be for me

I don't need it, but do I want it
And if I want it, should I have it anyway
