[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]
Ma' old lady told me: "I'm fine when I'm not drinking"
But she's not the one who's got to walk around in this skin
This body of mine, yeah, it has a very vicious way
Of acting all the stress out, pushing people away
[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
So why should I not crumble?
An' take a tumble on my own sweet head?
'Cause if I wasn't here, then I'd surely be dead
That's what the therapist said
[Verse 2: Kyle Falconer]
Yeah, little Billy told me to mock all of the merry ways
Live under the raincoat at easter
And die on Christmas day (wo-oh)
[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
And why should I not crumble?
Take a tumble on my own sweet head?
'Cause if I wasn't here, then I'd surely be dead
That's what the therapist said
[Refrain: Kyle Falconer]
Then the therapist told me not to bother with loving one another
An' focus on the "I, Me" man
Don't even bother with sister's and the brother's
Cause not to love yourself is a crime
So do it, 'til you feel fine (woh-oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
Ma' old lady told me: "I'm fine when I'm not drinking"
But she's not the one who's got to walk around in this skin
[Chorus: Kyle Falconer]
And why should I not crumble?
And take a tumble on my own sweet head?
'Cause if I wasn't here, then I'd surely be dead
That's what the therapist said
Oh, if I wasn't here, then I'd surely be dead
That's what the therapist, oh my crazy therapist
Oh, that's what the therapist said
