Just Can't Help Myself
Hailey Dibiasi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't know
What's wrong with me
I'm falling fast

I don't know
What's wrong with me
I'm falling fast
Come help me breathe
Gravity
Is pulling me
Into you
What can I do?

I've tried
To break away
But every road leads back to you
I can't find
The words to say
"Cause when I speak it sounds so confused

Should I be a little bit stronger?
Should I wait a little bit longer?
Feeling like it's all wrong
But I just can't help myself

Should I resist and fight it?
But my heart can't deny it
Feeling like it's all wrong
But I just can't can't help myself

I finally got
A hold on me
You're always strong
You make me weak
All the pain
Would go away
If I'd never met
Or seen your face

I try
To forget you
But my mind won't erase you
Replay
On a loop
Every second of every hour of every day

Should I be a little bit stronger?
Should I wait a little bit longer?
Feeling like it's so wrong
But I just can't help myself

Should I resist and fight it?
But my heart can't deny it
Feeling like it's so wrong
But I just can't can't help myself

I push, you pull
Like my heart's on a string
Am i a fool
For chasing what shouldn't be
I falling faster then fast

Will you catch me?
yeah, oh

Should I be a little bit stronger?
Should I be a little bit longer?
Feeling like it's so wrong
But I just can't help myself

Should I resist and fight it?
But my heart can't deny it
Feeling like it's so wrong
But I just can't can't help myself

Should I be a little bit stronger?
Should I be a little bit longer?
Should I resist and fight it?
But my heart can't deny it




Feeling like it's so wrong
I just can't help myself
