Anti-Hero

[Verse 1]

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

Midnights become my afternoons

When my depression works the graveyard shift, all of the people

I've ghosted stand there in the room

[Hook]

It's me

Me

[Verse 2]

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby

I am the monster on the hill

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

Pierced through the heart but never killed

[Hook]

It's me

Me

[Bridge]

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

"He's laughing up at us from Hell"

[Hook]

It's me

(It's me)

(It's me)

[Chorus]

It's me, hi

I'm the problem, it's me

At teatime everybody agrees

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

It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

[Bridge]

I should not be left to my own devices

They come with prices and vices

I end up in crisis

Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism

Like some kind of congressman?

I wake up screaming from dreaming

One day, I'll watch as you're leaving

Life or lose all this meaning

[Chorus]

It's me, hi

I'm the problem, it's me

At teatime everybody agrees

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

It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

It's me, hi

I'm the problem, it's me

At teatime everybody agrees

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

It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
