Testo Story i tell myself Lindsay Ell

Story i tell myself

Some days I'm feeling I'm not pretty enough
I'll take the wheel, but, but I won't get it done
I'm over thinking till I'm stuck in the mud
I'm exhausted from bad self-talking

The devil I know isn't good enough for me
Running uphill till there's nothing left of me
What would it feel like if I could believe?
All of my doubt is insecurity
I know my pride can get the best of me
How do I heal when something cut so deep?

I'm so tired of the story I tell myself
Somebody else is more deserving
The lies don't work when I'm doing well
But it hurts like hell to hear the story I tell myself

I know I'm worthy of so much better than this
It's hard to think 'bout everything that I've missed
But being vulnerable doesn't feel like a risk
When there's no hope in staying broken

The devil I know isn't good enough for me
Running uphill till there's nothing left of me
What would it feel like if I could believe?

I'm so tired of the story I tell myself
Somebody else is more deserving
The lies don't work when I'm doing well
But it hurts like hell to hear the story I tell myself

And I know that it's in my mind
Just wanna see what the other side looks like
Wish I could rewrite the story I tell myself
And I know it'll be alright
Just wanna step out into the light
Wish I, wish I could rewrite the story I tell myself

And I know that it's in my mind
Just wanna see what the other side looks like, I

I'm so tired of the story I tell myself
Somebody else is more deserving
The lies don't work when I'm doing well
But it hurts like hell to hear the story I tell myself
