[Verse 1]

I had a breakdown today

Somehow you always know what to say

All my doubts and anxiety

You break em down so easy

Found me on the floor shaking

You lift me up and it breaks me

I don't know how you handle

Somebody so unstable

[Pre-Chorus]

Wish I could see myself through your eyes

I think I’d love myself just one time

'Cause babe, you paint me in the best light

(Paint me in the best light)

I know I don't deserve a pedestal

My tongue is quick and I’m a handful

And you have every right to let go

[Chorus]

You don't have to hold me if you don't want to love

You don't have to talk me down if it's all too much

I wish I were easier, easier to love

I wish we were easy, but baby we're not

[Verse 2]

I don't mean to shut you out

I lose control and get so loud

You don't deserve my ups and downs, downs, hey

I can be so selfish

It’s my fault that I’m helpless

You shouldn't love a mess like me

For this hell, I’m so sorry

[Pre-Chorus]

Wish I could see myself through your eyes

I think I'd love myself just one time

'Cause babe, you paint me in the best light

(You paint me in the best light)

I know I don't deserve a pedestal

My tongue is quick and I’m a handful

And you have every right to let go

[Chorus]

You don't have to hold me if you don't want to love

You don't have to talk me down if it's all too much

I wish I were easier, easier to love

I wish we were easy, but baby we're not

You don't have to hold me

(Me, me)

If you don't want to love

(Want to love)

You don't have to talk me down

(Talk me down)

If it's all too much

(All too much, babe)

I wish I were easier

(Easier)

Easier to love

(Easier to love, baby)

I wish we were easy

(Easy)

But baby we're not

(ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Outro]

Hmm-hmmm

Huh-huh-huuuuh

Hmmmm

Hmmm-hmmm

Huuuhhh-huhhhhh
