lyrics

I'm happy with the life in living
I'm thankful for the things I'm given
But I just can't help feeling 
Underwhelmed 

The people they can't help saying 
That everything is overrated 
So I just keep on staying
By myself 

You want me out but I can't go
I'm scared of things that I don't know
Like all the lies of growing old 

Every time I speak out
Everybody freaks out
And tripping on the way out
Of the door

Never understanding my thoughts 
You save me like a screenshot
There isn't anything that I want 
Anymore

I bend until I'm breaking 
I'm tired of always thinking 
I don't have much remaining 
Anymore 

I'm quick to make decisions 
Impulsive with precision 
I find that solid vision 
Is a chore 

My friends they say they like me 
I SWEAR TO GOD IM TRYING 
To find just what I'm looking for 

Every time I speak out
Everybody freaks out
And tripping on the way out
Of the door

Never understanding my thoughts 
You save me like a screenshot
There isn't anything that I want 
Anymore

Can't keep my hands from shaking 
You had me for the taking 
But you insist on making  
It the worst 

I try hard to be charming 
Or at least a bit disarming 
I beg for you to call me 
Til it hurts. 

Every time I speak out
Everybody freaks out
And tripping on the way out
Of the door

Never understanding my thoughts 
You save me like a screenshot
There isn't anything that I want 

Anymore
