If I Were a Friend

If I were a friend I'd know just what to say To fix everything Make it all go away If I wasn't in my head I could help me settle down Make all of this make sense Cuz it doesn't right now Yeah I feel like I'm a failure I'm falling behind I'm not good enough And I couldn't tell you why I can't seem to stop thinking it Even though saying it out loud, it sounds ridiculous But I'm still trying If I were a friend I'd say come on over And we'll take a walk, we can talk, or not Save the stress for when we're older I'd say you're doing your best And that's all that really counts So just take a breath And let it all out Yeah right now I'm Always tired Lonely as hell Can't seem to ever Be enough for myself I can't seem to stop thinking it Even though saying it out loud it sounds so ridiculous But I'm still trying Ahhh Why is it that I'm only ever okay With anybody else but me making mistakes I never give myself any reason to break When I need it I'm saying this as a friend You're too hard on yourself You're worth so much more than you give yourself credit for I know you know it well
