[Verse 1]
I can't help feeling like a failure in your eyes
But I got nothing left inside to make me happy
But you know I can't be something that I'm not
I'm not quite sure where to go from here
The days are passing by and I'm losing time

[Chorus]
Help me catch a break
'Cause this smile's so hard to fake
I second guess all night
(I'm in a losing fight)
Myself against my brain
Against my

[Verse 2]
But your words are scarring me
I let them crawl right underneath
The ugly surface that reflected you, not me
I think it's time that I stood up for me
Cause you got no sympathy
For the way that I've been feeling

Could you care a little more, or I'll be right on out that door
I will hide the only key, in this hole beneath my feet
And if you start to feel remorse, or come knocking at my door
Just know that I won't let you in, so you better start to dig
(You better start to)
[Chorus]
Help me catch a break
'Cause this smile's so hard to fake
I second guess all night
(I'm in a losing fight)
Myself against my brain
Against my brain

[Bridge]
Myself against my brain
(Over and over)
It's driving me insane
(Over and over)
Myself against my brain
(Over and over)
It's driving me insane
(Over and over)

[Outro]
(Over and over)
Help me catch a break
(Over and over)
And it's driving me insane
Through my darker days
You held the match and let it break
You light the candle, find my way
Without the father I erased
