Henry Rollins - Low Self Opinion lyrics

I think you got a low self opinion man

I see you standing all by yourself

Unable to express the pain of your distress

You withdraw deeper inside

You alienate yourself

And everybody else

They wonder what's on your mind

They got so tired of you

And your self ridicule

They wrote you off and left you behind

You sleep alone at night

You never wonder why

All this bitterness wells up inside you

You always victimize

So you can criticize yourself

And all those around you

The hatred you project

Does nothing to protect you

You leave yourself so exposed

You want to open up

When someone says

Lighten up

You find all your doors closed

Get yourself a break from self rejection

Try some introspection

And you just might find

It's not so bad and anyway

At the end of the day

All you have is yourself and your mind

The self hatred that blinds you

Binds you grinds you keeps you down

The world falls down around you

You build up walls around you

You wear disgust like a crown

If you could see the you that I see

When I see you seeing me

You'd see yourself so differently

Believe me

I know the self doubt that runs inside your mind

I know the self that treats you so unkind

If you could see the you that I see

When I see you

You would see things differently

I assure you
