gut punch

Nick Jonas

I think my hair stopped growing, is that even a thing?
Haven t lost any of it, but something ain t the same
Maybe it s a metaphor, is it even that deep?
I think my hair stopped growing, or is it me?
I called Phil a couple times, he s probably sick of me
He said, Go easy on yourself
but what does that even mean?
Sounds like good advice
but I just can t hear it right now

Hit me like a gut punch
I hurt my own feelings
How did I get so good at being mean to myself?
I should turn the heat down, tell myself to chill out
Damn, I really hate the way I talk to myself

Hit me like a
Hit me like a

When the hell did I start trying to be perfect?
And people-pleasing, is it ever really worth it?
Fake-smiling just to pass the time
It s the only way I ve been getting by
Looked at myself and I can t even recognize
Who I am behind those eyes, one big disguise

Hit me like a gut punch
I hurt my own feelings
How did I get so good at being mean to myself?
I should turn the heat down, tell myself to chill out
Damn, I really hate the way I talk to myself

Hit me like a

Now, what would it be like if I just tried being nice
To the person that I m seeing in the mirror? Yeah
If you find that inner child
Haven t seen him for a while
Let him know he s doing fine

Hit me like a gut punch
I hurt my own feelings
How did I get so good at being mean to myself?
I should turn the heat down, tell myself to chill out
Damn, I really hate the way I talk to myself

Hit me like a
Yeah-yeah, oh-oh, yeah
Hit me like a gut punch
Oh-oh-oh, yeah
