I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser

Midnights become my afternoons

When my depression works the graveyard shiftAll of the people I′ve ghosted stand there in the room

I should not be left to my own devices

They come with prices and vices

I end up in crisis

Realized all this 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 tea time, everybody agrees

I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror

It must be exhausting, always rooting for the anti-hero

Sometimes, I feel like everybody is a sexy baby

And I′m a monster on the hill

Too big to hang out, slowly lurching towards your favorite city

Pierced through the heart, but never killed

Did you hear my covert narcissism lightly disguised as altruism

Like some kind of congressman

Realized all this time

I wake up screaming from dreaming

One day I'll watch as you′re leaving

And life will lose all of its meaning

For the last time

It's me, hi, I′m the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it′s me)

At tea time, 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 have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money

She thinks I left them in the will

The family gathers 'round and reads it and then someone screams out

"She′s laughing up at us from hell!"

It's me, hi, I′m the problem, it's me

It′s me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me

It′s me, hi, everybody agrees

Everybody agrees

It′s me, hi, I'm the problem, it′s me (I'm the problem, it′s me)

At tea (tea) time (time), everybody agrees (everybody agrees)

I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror

It must be exhausting, always rooting for the anti-hero
