Emma Steinbakken - Self lyrics

[Emma Steinbakken - Self lyrics]

I self-sabotage, self-medicate
Self-camouflage
Self-isolate, I just really wish
That the voices in my head
Would go and talk to
Someone else instead, but they don't want to

I'm a little late to the party
I'm a little late to the starting line
I could give a hundred different reasons
Why I don't believe in
Myself, deceiving myself, i mean it

Never felt less than right now, yeah

Why can't I feel good
Without feeling so bad?
Why can't I feel happy
Instead of feeling so sad?
'Cause I self-sabotage, self-medicate
Self-camouflage
Self-isolate, I just really wish
That the voices in my head
Would go and talk to
Someone else instead, but they don't want to

I guess I'm a little stuck in the past
Every mistake I make, yeah
It takes me back to
A mess like the first time I felt love
From a boy who always told me
I would never be enough, yeah
'Cause I was always different but
I hid it well
There was something missing but
You couldn't tell, i was in the middle
Of a breakdown, wait now, everybody slow down
I don't wanna talk about this right now

Why can't I feel good (I just wanna feel)
Without feeling so bad?
(I don't wanna feel that)
Why can't I feel happy (I just wanna feel)
Instead of feeling so sad?
(I don't wanna feel that)
'Cause I self-sabotage, self-medicate
Self-camouflage
Self-isolate, I just really wish
That the voices in my head
Would go and talk to
Someone else instead, but they don't want to

I just wanna feel 'Cause I'm the one who's
Always gonna follow you i just wanna feel
Just wanna pretend to be all fine

Why can't I feel good without feeling so bad
Why can't I be happy
Instead of feeling so sad

'Cause I self-sabotage, self-medicate
Self-camouflage
Self-isolate, I just really wish
That the voices in my head
Would go and talk to
Someone else instead, but they don't want to
Cause I self-sabotage, self-medicate
Self-camouflage
Self-isolate, I just really wish
That the voices in my head
Would go and talk to
Someone else instead, but they don't want to
