I feel like a bump on a log
I feel like I could barely carry on
I feel like everything is in my head
Saying you're better off dead
Why is everything a panic?
It makes me feeling like I'm manic
I just want to stop the world
Let me off because I've had it
I might smile when I'm in your face
I'm just getting by
Feels like I don't fit any place
Don't know why I try
Don't know how I'm falling from grace
Still trying to fly
Feels like I'm just a waste of space
While I'm getting by
This music isn't happy because I use it as therapy
I want to take this illness and just rip it right out of me
All the pain and it's caused is immense in situations
All the time that I've lost to just causing these frustrations
People never understand why you feel like you do
It's like your body's been cursed on some type of voodoo
But your nervous system hurts every day you're in pain
Sometimes you're doubled over and it makes you insane
But in my case, I gotta overcome my fear
So somebody stop the world because I want to get up out of here
I might smile when I'm in your face
I'm just getting by
Feels like I don't fit any place
Don't know why I try
Don't know how I'm falling from grace
Still trying to fly
Feels like I'm just a waste of space
While I'm getting by
I'm getting by the best way that I can
I'm taking every day by itself
Making a plan
But sometimes it's so hard
All the pain and strife
I'll just say to God, I wish that you would take my life.
I can't move like I used to
Shows like I used to
I don't even have the strength to do it like I used to
Every day is different when I wake up, I feel the dread
So just stop the world and leave me in a coffin dead
I might smile when I'm in your face
I'm just getting by
Feels like I don't fit any place
Don't know why I try
Don't know how I'm falling from grace
Still trying to fly
Feels like I'm just a waste of space
While I'm getting by
