[Verse 1]
Does it scare you, how I found you out?
Came out breathing after weight of doubt, and
Thought I was crazy and maybe I was
To keep on begging you to give me love
[Chorus]
When you can't, oh, help yourself
No one else will help you out of this
If you can't, oh, help yourself
No one else will help you out of this mess
[Verse 2]
What do you love if you don't love yourself?
Put all your darkness into someone else
You're just waiting for it all to end
And it gets bitter in the end, my friend
[Chorus]
If you can't, oh, help yourself
No one else will help you out of this
If you can't, oh, help yourself
No one else is gonna fall for this
[Bridge]
Oh, and loving you won't make it better
When nothing I try is good enough
Oh, loving you won't make it better
Let's drain it until there's nothing left
[Verse 3]
Yeah, I loved you, yeah, I loved you real
Loved the human under shades of steel, but
But I can no longer tread on shells
Not jumping in, I've got to save myself
[Chorus]
And you can't help yourself
To my kindness and confidence
And you can't, oh, help yourself
To my life and what I've made of it
And you can't help yourself
No one else is gonna fall for this
[Bridge]
Oh, and loving you won't make it better
When nothing I try is good enough
Oh, loving you won't make it better
Let's drain it until there's nothing left
[Outro]
If you can't help yourself
If you can't, oh, help yourself
No one else is gonna fall for this
