They say that you learn from the mistakes that you make
As life goes on and on
But I’m sat here at half five just watching time fly
Like I’ve got somewhere to go
But I’m bored of each day, bored of waiting for pay,
Bored of spending on boring days out
Go out when its dark, when I get home its dark
Just to get home and be bored again
Cos it’s a fucked-up world and it making me hurl
And I’m trying to figure it out
Things are looking up, but my eyes are still on the ground.
I can’t get myself out of bed
Whether it’s for work in the morning or slightly important
Nothing makes much sense
I’m busy running circles in my head
Cos it’s a fucked-up world and it’s making me hurl
And I’m trying to figure it out
I’m afraid
(of drowning in my own sick)
And things are looking up but
(I’m afraid)
I’m still feeling pessimistic
I’m afraid
(of drowning in my own sick)
And things are looking up but
(I’m afraid)
I’m still feeling pessimistic
- Break -
I’m afraid
(of drowning in my own sick)
And things are looking up but
(I’m afraid)
I’m still feeling pessimistic
I’m afraid
(of drowning in my own sick)
And things are looking up but
(I’m afraid)
I’m still feeling pessimistic
So just drive
I’m always trying to hard
Yeah I’m lying to myself
Cause I’ve never really bothered at all
