It's a day with a 'Y' in it so obviously I'm over it
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
And I'm trying not to worry
And I've tried being sorry
For being?born?in?the wrong place?and wrong time
'Cause?I've been messed up, stressed out, talking to myself again
Locked up, left out, terrified of everything
Wound up, found out, waiting around for something to give
Don't you ever wake up and suspect
That you were simply never cut out to be
The kind of person they expect
The person you int?nded to be?
And I keep it all in with my idiot grin
And I'm doing my best but th?re's very little left
So cut me some slack as I crawl back into my shell
I haven't been doing so well
I haven't been doing so well
I got a brand new name for an old, old friend
The doctor said it's anxiety
And it makes a lot of sense
'Cause I've been so tense
Some days I find it difficult to see
'Cause I've been hemmed in, penned out, struggling to find myself
Caved in, cut down, scared of everybody else
Dragged in, dragged out, searching for a reason to live
Don't you ever wake up and suspect
That you were simply never cut out to be
The kind of person they expect
The person you intended to be?
And I keep it all in with my idiot grin
And I'm doing my best but there's very little left
So cut me some slack as I crawl back into my shell
I haven't been doing so well
Can you tell?
And if self-loathing was a sport I'd be Muhammad Ali
'Cause I can sting like a butterfly and sink like a bee
But they don't hand out medals to monsters like me
Oh well
I haven't been doing so well
Maybe I can do with some help
I haven't been doing so well
Maybe I can do with some help
'Cause every day I wake up and suspect
That I was simply never cut out to be
The kind of person they expect
The person I intended to be
'Cause I'm not Joe Strummer, not Muhammad Ali
Not a teacher, not a builder
Just uncomfortable me
Oh maybe, just maybe, I'll admit that I could use a little help
I haven't been doing so well
