Haunted Attention
It comes crashing in
As if there’s never been anything like it
I keep finding myself repeating the same mistakes
I never did see the irony
I’m drowning in sound
It’s wearing me out
I tumble and turn with no direction
I fall and I fold
It’s wearing me down
To what this all amount
Hey! You got my attention
What more do you want?
You’re not special
No matter how hard you try!
I’m just like you
Here we go
Might as well just make the best of it
And you know
They’ll never understand what you see
This is more than I can hold
It comes crashing in
As if there’s never been anything like it
I keep finding myself repeating the same mistakes
I never did see the irony
What am I supposed to do?
Ask life for a break
Am I to medicate it?
Adapt and subjugate it?
If you would only just
Shut you’re…
What people never understand is how I ever get it right the first time
The stumble and stumble
What’s wrong with you!
And do you really wanna know
What it’s like to live a lifetime answering to fools
You ain’t got a f..cking clue
But I won’t let ‘em break me
I won’t let ‘em take me
I won’t let ‘em do it
I won’t let ‘em break me down
