Why Am I This Way?

It's like there's someone in my soul who's holding black paint
She's standing ready with her brush and I don't have a say
They think I'm doing it to myself oh if they only knew
The one who's painting in my soul looks a lot like you

Why am I this way?
It looks like I'm doing it to myself
Why am I this way?
Self sabotage is my best friend
And she'll be by my side
Until the very end

Sunny skies but all that I can see is gray
And I dread every single thing before it even gets a say
Nothing's ever quite as bad as she tells me it will be
But I can't control my premature mind believes what it can't see

Why am I this way?
It looks like I'm doing it to myself
Why am I this way?
Self sabotage is my best friend
And she'll be by my side
Until the very end

Wire too thick to cut
Tightly wrapped around my spine
But if she'd let me go
Then maybe I could come undone this time
Where did it all go wrong?
She's always been there by my side
If misery loves company well I guess I've got mine
If misery loves company well I guess I've got mine
