I have been busy, to overcome it
But I've been stuck on my mind
A thousand excuses
Will never change it
But I am willing to try
They say "go ahead, you'll figure it out"
But they don't care, they only act
And I, I am going down
They wear a mask, I fake a smile
We play the game, we made a pact
But they will never find out
I feel so lost
And out of focus
I can't wait forever
I'm losing my breath
And I'm under water
'Cause I need it now
So I got a job after all
I found a bed to lay down
But I still feel like a mess
Go chase new lovers around
And buy more smokes to calm down
So is this life? well, I guess
They say "It's okay, you will be fine
It's not that bad, don't overreact"
And I, I am starting to drown
Maybe they're right, and I need to relax
But I'll find my own way, away from my mind
It's a waste of my time
I feel so lost
And out of focus
I can't wait forever
I'm losing my breath
And I'm under water
'Cause I need it now
Now I've got a light feeling in my chest
I know I am the next, and it's gon' be alright
Can't put up a fight, so put me to rest
'Cause the best people I know can't fall asleep at night, yeah
