You stayed awake for fourteen days
And then you slept a week
Why do you do this to yourself?
You drank out on the fire escape
Until you couldn't speak
Why do you do this to yourself?

Why do you do this to yourself?
Refusing any kind of help
You're not hurting no one else
But you can't see
Why do you do this to yourself
If you knew just how it felt?
You're not hurting no one else
Cause you can't see

You'll stay up again, I'm sure
I won't be losing sleep
Why do you do this to yourself?
