Pleasing People

Why am I so anxious?
Worrying 'bout nothing
Smile to every stranger I walk past on the street

What is it with this pressure?
Feeling like a failure
Pleasing people I don't even think that I'll keep

I've got some flaws, I know them all
Every word that I've said on repeat in my head
I'm standing tall, but I'm in free fall
The mistakes that I've made coming with me to bed

Why do I
Take all of the blame on your behalf?
Give a little more than what I have?
Why am I so good when it feels so fucking bad?

Why
Why
Why do I pretend I'm alright?
Why
Why
Why am I so good when it feels so fucking bad?

I'm overthinking
And I'm sinking
All the while I try my best to prove that I am tough
Feel like a misfit
Dress really pretty
Like if I was perfect somehow that would be enough

Why do I
Sit a little straighter than I would?
Smile a little brighter than I could?
Push myself a little longer than I should?

Why do I
Take all of the blame on your behalf?
Give a little more than what I have?
Why am I so good when it feels so fucking bad?

Why
Why
Why do I pretend I'm alright?
Why
Why
Why am I so good when it feels so fucking bad?

(Why)
(Why)
Why
Why
Why am I so good when it feels so fucking bad?
