The Science of Selling Yourself Short Lyrics

I've come to my senses
That I've become senseless
I could give you lessons on how to ruin your friendships
Every last conviction, I smoked them all away
I drank my frustrations down the drain, out of the way
So I sit and wait and wonder
Does anyone else feel like me?
Someone so tired of their routines and disappearing self-esteems

I'll sing along
Yeah with every emergency
Just sing along
I'm the king of catastrophes
I'm so far gone
That deep down inside I think it's fine by me
I'm my own worst enemy

I could be an expert on co-dependency
I could write the best book on underage tragedy
I've been spending my time at the local liquor store
I've been sleeping nightly on my best friends kitchen floor
So I sit and wait and wonder
Does anyone else feel like me?
I'm so overdosed on apathy and put down on sympathy

I'll sing along
Yeah with every emergency
Just sing along
I'm the king of catastrophes
I'm so far gone
That deep down inside I think it's fine by me
I'm my own worst enemy

Let the meaning slip away
Lost my faith in another day
Self deprecation seems okay
I never thought I'd make it anyway

I'll sing along
Yeah with every emergency
Just sing along
I'm the king of catastrophes
I'm so far gone
That deep down inside I think it's fine by me
I'm my own worst enemy

That I'm my own worst enemy
I'm my own worst enemy
And I'm my own worst enemy
'Cause I'm my own worst enemy
And I'm my own worst enemy

What is the Meaning of The Science of Selling Yourself Short?

Ever feel like you're your own worst enemy? This song dives deep into that feeling. It's about someone who’s hit rock bottom, struggling with self-destructive habits like drinking and smoking away their problems. They feel stuck in a cycle of ruining friendships and losing self-esteem, yet there's a strange acceptance of their chaotic life. The lyrics reflect a sense of apathy and resignation, as if they've given up on trying to change. Despite the mess, they find some solace in singing along with the chaos, almost wearing their catastrophes like a crown. It’s raw, honest, and painfully relatable for anyone who's ever felt lost in their own downward spiral.
