My Own Bully Lyrics by Mark Watt

Planets

2024

[Verse 1]
When will I learn to shut my mouth
Make a hole a deeper well
Upon reflection I tell myself
That I hate this hell
Can someone please show me how
How to live cause I'm worn thin
Self-deprecation is my way to keep me on the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't see how I scream at myself
The consequence of the insignificant
[Chorus]
I wonder why
I can't seem to change
So critical
My own bully
Have I got this far
Just to see it undone
Is it just me
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one?
[Verse 2]
It's just a waste of ink on a page
I feel like I am always to blame
Cause I was speaking in tongues
And end up making worse
How do I learn to silence the noise
Everything is black and white
And I can't find the line
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Do you know how I scream at myself?
The punishment for what I overshare
[Chorus]
I wonder why
I can't seem to change
So critical
My own bully
Have I got this far
Just to see it undone
Is it just me
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one?
[Bridge]
Legs stuck in the tar again
I cannot move, I cannot swim
So tape it shut cause they're not listening
It's just a waste of breath and energy
It's just a waste of breath and energy
So tell me what it is
What I've really got to lose
I don't want you to know that I'm no fucking use
How is it so unclear?
Will I pay the price for what I hold dear?
[Chorus]
I wonder why
I can't seem to change
So critical
My own bully
Have I got this far
Just to see it undone
Is it just me
Am I the only one?
Have I got this far
Just to see it burn
Did I distort the sky
Beyond return
