[Verse 1]

Can someone remind me why I’m doing this at all

Fight off the monsters from under your bed

Meanwhile bloodsucking demons are gnawing at my soul

And I think that I’m better off dead


[Chorus]

But I’m your therapist, unreciprocated

Put you back together with my own pieces

You know it leaves me in ruins

No one's gonna save me, I should have learned

I’m supposed to do this on my own


[Verse 2]

I’m sorry if this one gets way too honest

I’ll bite off my tongue just to let you breathe

I hope you feel better, I hope you feel safer

I hope you know you’ll be the death of me


[Chorus]

The death of your therapist, unreciprocated

Put you back together with my own pieces

You know it leaves me in ruins

No one's gonna save me, I should have learned

I’m supposed to do this on my own


[Bridge]

Why does it only ever seem to hurt when I smile

Why do I feel all alone in rooms that are full

Is this my penance, is this what I deserve

If there’s a God, isn’t she merciful

I don’t think they could save me now

But don’t sweat it, forget it, I’ll be dead in a second

No funerals, I hate them


[Chorus]

I’d hate to think you cared about your therapist, unreciprocated

Put you back together with my own pieces

You know it leaves me in ruins

No one's gonna save me, I should have learned

I’m supposed to do this on my own
