Tough On Myself Lyrics

Nobody told me to sit down and shut up and take this shit slowly
I'm so bad with the tensions, so my good intentions get bad when you hold me

I get too tough on myself
Sitting alone making fun of myself

You want that young love, like passing emotion, that shit that you dream of
I'm just sitting at home smoking joints like it's my job 'cause that's what my dream was

I get too tough on myself
Sitting alone making fun of myself
Is it so wrong to just want someone else
(I was thinking you and I could get together)
(I was thinking maybe you could do me better)
Is it so wrong to just want someone else
(I was thinking you and I could get together)
(I was thinking maybe you could do me better)

Ooh
Down on my self
I get too
Ooh
I get too tough on myself
Ooh
I get too tough on myself

I get too tough on myself
(I was thinking you and I could get together)
(I was thinking maybe you could do me better)
Sitting alone making fun of myself
(I was thinking you and I could get together)
(I was thinking maybe you could do me better)
Is it so wrong to just want someone else
(I was thinking you and I could get together)
(I was thinking maybe you could do me better)
Is it so wrong to just want someone else
(I was thinking you and I could get together)
(I was thinking maybe you could do me better)

What is the Meaning of Tough On Myself?

In a world that often demands perfection, this poignant melody serves as a raw confession of self-criticism and longing for connection. The lyrics reveal an internal struggle, highlighting the artist's tendency to be excessively hard on herself. This self-deprecating attitude is reflected in her solitary activities and self-mockery. Yet, beneath this veneer of toughness, there's a yearning for companionship and acceptance. She dreams of young love, an idealized emotional state that seems unattainable. Her repeated question - "Is it so wrong to just want someone else?" - underscores this desire for intimacy and validation from another person. Ultimately, the song is a candid expression of vulnerability and the human need for love and understanding amidst our own personal battles.
