Lyrics
You beat yourself up too much
You tend to criticize yourself excessively.
Hurt everybody that you love
Your actions cause harm to those you care about.
When your excuses get used up
When your justifications are exhausted,
You're on your way to find new ones
You're inclined to search for new reasons or excuses.
It's no good for your health
Self-destructive behavior negatively impacts your well-being.
The less you ask for help
Seeking assistance less often intensifies self-hatred.
The more you hate yourself
Refusing help leads to increased self-loathing.
It doesn't need to be this way cuz
This situation is not necessary because
Tommy you don't have to be a tough guy
You, Tommy, don't need to adopt a tough persona.
Don't you know you can just cry
You have the option to express your emotions through tears.
Tommy if you ever feel your tongue tied
If you ever find it hard to speak,
You can run but you can't hide
You can't escape, but you can confront the issue.
What's it gonna take to see ya
What will it take to make you
Wear your heart up on your t-shirt
Show your vulnerability openly.
Tommy you don't have to be a tough guy
You don't need to maintain a tough exterior, Tommy.
You're lost and ashamed of it
You're lost and feel ashamed about it.
You say you're okay, you're fine
You claim you're fine when
But you're not good at faking it
You struggle to convincingly fake it.
When you're losing your mind
During moments of mental distress,
It's no good for your health
Self-destructive behavior negatively impacts your well-being.
The less you ask for help
Seeking assistance less often intensifies self-hatred.
The more you hate yourself
Refusing help leads to increased self-loathing.
It doesn't need to be this way cuz
This situation is not necessary because
Tommy you don't have to be a tough guy
You, Tommy, don't need to adopt a tough persona.
Don't you know you can just cry
You have the option to express your emotions through tears.
Tommy if you ever feel your tongue tied
If you ever find it hard to speak,
You can run but you can't hide
You can't escape, but you can confront the issue.
What's it gonna take to see ya
What will it take to make you
Wear your heart up on your t-shirt
Show your vulnerability openly.
Tommy you don't have to be a tough guy
You don't need to maintain a tough exterior, Tommy.
