[Verse 1]
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've ghosted stand there in the room
[Pre-Chorus]
I should not be left to my own devices
They come with prices and vices
I end up in crisis
(Tale as old as time)
I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day, I’ll watch as you're leaving
'Cause you got tirеd of my scheming
(For the last time)
[Chorus]
It’s mе, 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
[Verse 2]
Sometimes, it feels like everybody here is looking at me
Like I'm the monster they've come to kill
Seems like the things I hide from them that live behind these eyelids
I try to conceal, but they see them still
[Pre-Chorus]
I take all of these -isms, wrap them in narcissism
Dressed up nice in optimism
(A tale as old as time)
I wake up drunk from nights drinking
Hungover, stressed, overthinking
And swear that this the last weekend
(But that's a lie)
[Chorus]
It's me, hi
I’m the problem, it’s me (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
[Bridge]
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
She thinks I left them in the will
Turns out I did because [?] and I think it's funny
I'm dead and they’re unhappy still
[Breakdown]
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
It's me, hi
Everybody agrees, everybody agrees
[Chorus]
It's me, hi (Hi)
I'm the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it's me)
At teatime (Teatime), everybody agrees (Everybody agrees)
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
