I wish it was easier
To be easy on myself
Now I'm bleeding out
But too proud to ask for help
I'm a mess
But I hold it all together
Why the hell
Can’t it be easier
To be easy on myself?

I’ve got high expectations
Keeping me low my whole life
Focused on a destination
Forever changing inside my mind
Every time I feel okay
I pull myself back down again
Say: I should be doing better
But if I talked to somebody
The way I always talked to me
There’d be no one left

I wish it was easier
To be easy on myself
Now I'm bleeding out
But too proud to ask for help
I'm a mess
But I hold it all together
Why the hell
Can’t it be easier
To be easy on myself?

Oh, it’s hard to keep my head up
When I'm face down
Facing demons that I’ve gotten to know
But I can’t control no more
There’s got to be someway
To feel something other than this
And be hopeful for the day when it is

A little easier
To be easy on myself
Now I'm bleeding out
But too proud to ask for help
I'm a mess
But I hold it all together
Why the hell
Can’t it be easier
To be easy on my?

Life can be so cruel
But not as cruel as me

I wish it was easier
To be easy on myself
Now I'm bleeding out
But too proud to ask for help
I'm a mess
But I hold it all together
Why the hell
Can’t it be easier
To be easy on myself?
