You say it's too much
That you need some space
I'm not even surprised
'Cause it's not the first time someone's told me I need to change
My highs are too high
Lost count of my lows
'Cause I laugh till I cry and I cry all the time
I'm a mess

Tell me why
Why am I so damn emotional?
Afraid of myself
'Cause I'm lovin' and hatin' with no control
So I say
Take it, take it, take it easy
Trying not to be so hard on myself
But tell me why, why, why
Why am I so damn emotional?

What can I do
It's just who I am
Sometimes I love so hard
That it pulls things apart and I
I don't really understand
So many thoughts in my head
I should think before I talk instead
And I can't help but be
Always ahead of myself
So I keep asking and asking

Oh tell me, please tell me why (why)
Why am I so damn emotional?
Afraid of myself
'Cause I'm lovin' and hatin' with no control
So I say
Take it, take it, take it easy
Trying not to be so hard on myself
Tell me why, why, why (why)
Why am I so damn emotional?

Tell me why
Why am I so damn emotional?
Afraid of myself
'Cause I'm lovin' and hatin' with no control
So I say
Take it, take it, take it easy
Trying not to be so hard on myself
Tell me why, why, why (why)
Why am I so damn emotional?
