Someone To Root For

I hear your heart beat to the beat of the drums
Oh, what a shame that you came here with someone
So while you're here in my arms
Let's make the most of the night
Like we're gonna die young

I have this thing where I get older, but just never wiser
Midnights become my afternoons
When my depression works the graveyard shift, all of the peoplе
I've ghosted stand therе in the room

I should not be left to my own devices
They come with prices and vices
I end up in crisis
(Tale as old as time)
I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day, I'll watch as you're leaving
'Cause you got tired of my scheming
(For the last time)

It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Are you dead or are you sleeping?
Are you dead or are you sleeping?
Are you dead or are you sleeping?
God, I sure hope you are dead

Sometimes, I feel like everybody is a sexy baby (Huh?)
And I'm a monster on the hill
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
Pierced through the heart, but never killed

Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
Look at ya, look at ya, look at ya, look at ya
Like some kind of congressman?
Look at ya, look at ya, look at ya, look at ya
(A tale as old as time)
I wake up screaming from dreaming
Look at ya, look at ya, look at ya, look at ya
One day, I'll watch as you're leaving
And life will lose all its meaning
Look at ya, look at ya, look at ya, look at ya
(For the last time)

It's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it's me)
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

I'm so embarrassing
So used to abandoning myself
I can't believe I'm still alive
