Anti-Hero (Country Version)

I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
Midnights become my afternoons
When my depression works the graveyard shift
All of the people I have ghosted stand there in the room
I should not be left to my own devices
They come with prices and vices, I end up in crisis
I wake up screamin' from dreamin'
One day I'll watch you as you're
leavin' 'cause you got tired of my schemin'

It's me, Hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
And I'm a monster on the hill
Too big to hang out
Slowly lurching toward your favorite city
Pierced through the heart but never killed
Did you hear my covert narcissism
I disguise as altruism like some crooked congressman?
I wake up screaming from dreamin'
One day I'll watch you as you're leavin'
life will lose all of its meanin'

It's me, Hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

I have this dream where
my daughter kills me for the money
She thinks I left her in the will
And all the family gathers round
And then somebody screams out
He's laughin' up at us from hell

It's me, Hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
