I've been sippin' rum like it's H2O
Drownin' in spirits while livin' like a ghost
Searchin' for God at the bottom of bottles
And losin' myself in the process
I keep breakin' down like a beat-up truck
Sleepin' at the wheel with my eyes sewed shut
Wallow in pity, the city has plenty like me
How the hell did I wind up here?
Lyin' in a ditch
Talkin' to myself
Like I flipped a switch
Makin' me someone else
Eventually my tendencies
Might push you away
Please, please, stay
Take me for what all I have to offer
I'm a broken mess
Can you stitch me up and mend me?
Can you make me whole again?
Sorry for the hell I drag you under
I did not intend
To become what I am, the shell of a man
Misery really does love company
I've been throwin' stones at the lookin' glass
Denyin' what I am, denyin' what I have, oh
That's illusion I'm choosin', the truth is it chose me
Coursin' through my veins like acid in an IV
Stuck in cruise control, bracin' for the impact
Lyin' in a ditch
Lyin' to myself
And the worst part is
No one's tried to help
My tendencies, they seem to be
Pushing you away
Please, please, stay
Take me for what all I have to offer
I'm a broken mess
Can you stitch me up and mend me?
Can you make me whole again?
Sorry for the hell I drag you under
I did not intend
To become what I am, the shell of a man
Misery really does love company
You deserve the better man
The better man
Maybe I get caught up in the sound
Of you cryin' over me
A vicious cycle
We just keep spinnin' around and around
Take me for what all I have to offer
I'm a broken mess
Can you stitch me up and mend me?
Can you make me whole again?
Sorry for the hell I drag you under
I did not intend
To become what I am, the shell of a man
Misery really does love company
You deserve much better
