[Verse 1]
Didn't ask to be born as a black hole
A silent tornado between four bedroom walls
I swallow up everybody's real bad days
I make your pain my pain, like it's nothing at all

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I give a little, I give a lot
There's no in the middle, can't make it stop
When I give a little, it's all I got
'Til there's nothing left but emptiness

[Chorus]
Oh, why do I do this to myself?
Every time you go through hell
I'm right there with you whether I like it or not
Oh, I'm overdosing empathy
And I do it recklessly
Why do I care?
(Why do I do this to mysеlf?)

[Verse 2]
Picking up on every little signal
You don't еven realize that you've been giving off
I let you plant your problems in my body
And I can't pull the weeds out fast enough
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I give a little, I give a lot
There's no in the middle, can't make it stop
When I give a little, it's all I got
'Til there's nothing left but emptiness

[Chorus]
Oh, why do I do this to myself?
Every time you go through hell
I'm right there with you whether I like it or not
Oh, I'm overdosing empathy
And I do it recklessly
Why do I care?
(Why do I do this to myself?)

[Bridge]
What have I gotta do to make them go away?
I don't wanna feel all of your feelings anymore

[Chorus]
Why do I do this to myself?
Every time you go through hell
I'm right there with you whether I like it or not
Oh, I'm overdosing empathy
And I do it recklessly
Why do I care?
