story i tell myself

Some days I'm feeling I'm not pretty enough
I take the wheel, but, but I won't get it done
I'm overthinking 'til I'm stuck in the mud
I'm exhausted from bad self-talking

The devil I know isn't good enough for me
Running uphill 'til there's nothing left of me
What would it feel like if I could believe
All of my doubt is insecurity?
I know my pride can get the best of me
How do I heal when something cuts so deep?

I'm so tired of the story I tell myself
Somebody else is more deserving
The lies don't work when I'm doing well
But it hurts like hell to hear the story I tell myself

I know I'm worthy of so much better than this
It's hard to think 'bout everything that I missed
But being vulnerable doesn't feel like a risk
When there's no hope in staying broken

The devil I know isn't good enough for me
Running uphill 'til there's nothing left of me
What would it feel like if I could believe?

I'm so tired of the story I tell myself
Somebody else is more deserving
The lies don't work when I'm doing well
But it hurts like hell to hear the story I tell myself

And I know that it's in my mind
Just wanna see what the other side looks like
Wish I could rewrite the story I tell myself
And I know it'll be alright
Just wanna step out into the light
Wish I, wish I could rewrite the story I tell myself

I know that it's in my mind
Just wanna see what the other side looks like, I

I'm so tired (I'm so tired) of the story I tell myself (I tell myself)
Somebody else (somebody else) is more deserving (more deserving)
The lies don't work when (the lies don't work when)
I'm doing well (I'm doing well)
But it hurts like hell to hear the story I tell myself
