I Still Keep Them Around Lyrics

I've been thinking about my problems

And how they weigh me down

And how I say that I don't really want 'em

But I still keep them around

I think we all deserve much better

Than the mess that I've become

And I'm afraid to keep selling a false hope

That someday I'll be enough

I stood up from my emotional needs

Just to find I'm stuck in taller weeds

I guess my vices always had me beat

Well I want some relief

Don't wanna be stuck in a daydream

With my head up in the clouds

Thinking I can keep doing the same things

And the results will change somehow

There must be some kind of satisfaction

When I'm in too deep

Lured away by some attraction

To treasures I could never keep

Seems like all of us will make excuse

When we have failed to do the things we should

Lies will always rush to comfort you

When you can't accept the truth

I stood up from my emotional needs

Just to find I'm stuck in taller weeds

I guess my vices always had me beat

Well I want some relief

I keep telling myself that people change

I can change, I can overcome

Don't make any guarantees

But I won't, no I won't give up

Just keep telling yourself that people change

You can change, you can overcome

Don't make any guarantees

But you don't, no you don't give up

No, don't give up

Don't give up

I keep thinking about my problems

And how they weigh me down

And how I say that I don't really want 'em

But I still keep them around
