Growing up, I never had a lot of money I never had a phone, always was a little hungry Used to find it hard to sleep when I could hear my mother sobbing I was ten back then I didn't have a room, had to buy used shoes I hid behind tombs to avoid abuse And every time I fell, I would blame it on myself Even if it was an accident Baby, it's not what I want Oh, I've seen better days And the moment *** sucks But I'll be damned if I don't stop And honestly, why not When nobody gives a *** But sometimes I just can't help myself I wanna give a chance Of doing something else Sometimes I just get overwhelmed I know it's in my mind But I think I need some help Sometimes I just can't help myself I was an outcast Thrown out to dry and get laughed at Too shy to talk about home I always thought life was supposed to be cold And oh, I've been so lost without hope I got a window in my head, it's a casket You know I'd be wishing I was dead, but I'm asking Baby, it's not what I want Oh, I've seen better days And the moment *** sucks But I'll be damned if I don't stop And honestly, why not When nobody gives a *** But sometimes I just can't help myself I wanna give a chance Of doing something else Sometimes I just get overwhelmed I know it's in my mind But I think I need some help Because it's all I know My hands around my throat Pray that I won't let go this time around But every single time I try to shut my eyes I see the reason why I'm alone But sometimes I just can't help myself I wanna give a chance Of doing something else Sometimes I just get overwhelmed I know it's in my mind But I think I need some help Sometimes I just can't help myself
