story of my life

Drenched in weak and hurtful lies

Full of hate and self-despise

Way too often leave myself so high and dry

Always willing, never able

Living out another fable

Fighting with myself, I don't know why, no

I make my worth a synonym

With everything I've never been

And everything I'm never gonna be

Wanna show you what I got, got, got

Wanna see me at the top, top, top

But I'm bringing me down, bringing me down

Bringing me down, bringing me down

Got, got, got

Wanna see me at the top, top, top

But I'm bringing me down, bringing me down, yeah

And that's the story of my life

And that's the story of my life

And that's the story of my life

Compliments? Impossible

I really can be so intolerable

They tell me just to take the win

But I just find it all improbable

I'm so facetious, conversations

Are self-deprecating competitions

Joking at my own expense

Another foolish form of self-defense

So I make my worth a synonym

With everything I've never been

And everything I'm never gonna be

Wanna show you what I got, got, got

Wanna see me at the top, top, top

But I'm bringing me down, bringing me down

Bringing me down, bringing me down

Got, got, got

Wanna see me at the top, top, top

But I'm bringing me down, bringing me down, yeah

And that's the story of my life

And that's the story of my life

And that's the story of my life
