Emma Howett - Why Am I Like This? Lyrics

Can I make you laugh for real
Can I make you laugh for real
Every time I think I've closed the book
Another spine is in my hand
Why am I like this?
Why am I like this?
Why? Why? Why? Why?
Why am I like this?
God, why am I like this?
I'm chaos, untidy, I drive myself crazy
I'm lost in my brain and it's dark
Why can't I break through
Find peace, rise above you
I'm flames licking, heart kicking
Fast living, over thinking
Approach from the side
I pretend all the paths taken in my life
Have led me here
But thats not true
I am having a terrible time
Flies in my sherry, water in my wine
No altercation, I apologise
How can I get smaller, look at what you taught her
Secret poetry, call centre desk
How can I respect myself less?
Laughing about nothing cos I can with you
I want to feel something I want to feel something new
Why am I like this?
God, why am I like this?
I'm chaos, untidy, I drive myself crazy
I'm lost in my brain and it's dark
Why can't I break through
Find peace, rise above you
I'm flames licking, heart kicking
Fast living, over thinking
Tell myself that I'm fine
The money in my pocket
Is burning a hole
I use it to keep away the cold
Dropping my jewellery into the drain
You don't understand no I'm perfectly sane
I don't want drama I don't need the pain
Here we go, here we go,
Here we go again
Why am I like this?
God, why am I like this?
I'm chaos, untidy, I drive myself crazy
I'm lost in my brain and it's dark
Why can't I break through
Find peace, rise above you
I'm flames licking, heart kicking
Fast living, over thinking
