What would it be like to see me
In your eyes from your mind?
I've tried to believe you
When you say it's alright
I've been like this since the age of 14
Tearing myself down's my morning routine
Tell me how to break from habits so deep
'Cause I know I deserve better
I wish I could see myself the way a friend would see me
'Cause if I told you how I talk to myself, you would've never believed me
Everyone says I give the best advice
But I can barely sleep at night
It's hard to take my own words and believe them
The way a friend would

Each year, I say that I'll change
But I just stay the same, I'm so stuck in bad habits
I say that I'm doing great
To the people who ask, guess I'm just a good actress
'Cause since the age of 14
Tearing myself down's my morning routine
I wish I could see myself the way a friend would see me
'Cause if I told you how I talk to myself, you would've never believed me
Everyone says I give the best advice
But I can barely sleep at night
It's hard to take my own words and believe them
And I wish I could
The way a friend would
Yeah, I wish I could
The way a friend would
And one day I should
The way a friend would
