I know you feel it, but you'd always rather bottle it up
I'm rooting for you, but you're not even trying
I wanna help you, but it's hard to get through all of your walls
I hope you know that
I'm rooting for you

You made all this conflict
Brought it upon yourself
Is this what you wanted
I can't even tell

Stuck in the thick of it
God aren't you sick of it by now
Not just a little bit
It's always you against yourself
Selfish ways are suffocating
I can't save you now
Oh, why's it always you against yourself

You're on the other side of everything that anyone says
So defensive and it's you that it's hurting
I wanna help you, but I can't, so I'm walking away
I'm rooting for you
I'm still rooting for you

Wish I could be honest
Wish you'd understand
We don't talk very often
You're lost in your head

Stuck in the thick of it
God aren't you sick of it by now
Not just a little bit
It's always you against yourself
Selfish ways are suffocating
I can't save you now
Oh, why's it always you against yourself

You're going out
Almost every night
And you wonder why
You feel fucked up
Said you wanna try
To live a better life
Until you realize
Nothing's enough
You're going out
Almost every night
And you wonder why
You feel fucked up
Said you wanna try
To live a better life
Until you realize
Nothing's enough

Stuck in the thick of it
God aren't you sick of it by now
Not just a little bit
It's always you against yourself
Selfish ways are suffocating
I can't save you now
Oh, why's it always you against yourself
