Lyrics Self Help - Liam O'Brien

I never wrote a song like this
I don't know if I've ever missed
Someone like this
I know I said what I said
But now regret's filling up my head
Cause I left you on your own
Still I go and hit your phone
But I gotta know we gotta be alone
And all I need is peace and quiet
But still I hear you in the silence
So why'd I lie saying this was right

Cause now I'm always thinking to myself
You're with someone else
It's got me using drinking for self-help
For self-help
So why'd I go and do this to myself
Don't want no one else
It's got me taking another one off the shelf
For self-help

I just wanna hear you say you miss me
That you'd kiss me if you could
Just tell me something good
I just wanna hear you say your heart aches
Cause mine does every day
And I'm drowning out the pain
By drinking for self-help

Never wrote a song like this
I wanna write it but scared that it exists
No matter how hard I fight it it tells it like it is
So I drink, then sing, and reminisce

Cause now I'm always thinking to myself
You're with someone else
It's got me using drinking for self-help
For self-help
So why'd I go and do this to myself
Don't want no one else
It's got me taking another one off the shelf
For self-help

I just wanna hear you say you miss me
That you'd kiss me if you could
Just tell me something good
I just wanna hear you say your heart aches
Cause mine does every day
And I'm drowning out the pain
By drinking for self help
