I woke up today surrounded by blackness
I woke up today surrounded by blackness
The small morning sun devoured the process
The small morning sun devised the process
It's always been fun when I get a bit nervous
It's always been fun when I get a bit nervous
And it's hard to say, but I feel a bit weightless
And it's hard to say, but I feel a bit weightless
The more that I admit I feel a bit anxious
The more that I admit I feel a bit anxious
The more I go on, the less I can face this
The more I go on, the less I can face this
And those rotten things that live in our shadow
And those rotten things that live in our shadow
We walk on the line of death and the gallows
We walk on the line of death and the gallows
And hope that we clear a path we can follow
And hope that we clear a path we can follow
It's the worst damn day of my life
It's the worst damn day of my life
I made a mess today
I made a mess today
I'm alright
I'm alright
When I was young, the world, it was smaller
When I was young, the world, it was smaller
The cities were vast, the buildings were taller
The cities were vast, the buildings were taller
I felt really strong, my parents seemed stronger
I felt really strong, my parents seemed stronger
My life has a way, it showers with greatness
My life has a way, it showers with greatness
Then takes it away, those pieces that made us
Then takes it away, those pieces that made us
Then teaches you things you'd never imagine
Then you teach things you'd never imagine
We all get the same, the memories, the burdens
We all get the same, the memories, the burdens
The pictures we made, they still form a pattern
The pictures we made, they still form a pattern
They cautiously say, 'Does it all matter?'
They cautiously say, 'Does it all matter?'
It's the worst damn day of my life
It's the worst damn day of my life
I made a mess today
I made a mess today
I'm alright
I'm alright
It's the worst damn day of my life
It's the worst damn day of my life
I made a mess today
I made a mess today
I'm alright
I'm alright
It's the worst damn day of my life
It's the worst damn day of my life
I made a mess today
I made a mess today
I'm alright
I'm alright
It's the worst damn day of my life
It's the worst damn day of my life
I made a mess today
I made a mess today
I'm alright
I'm alright
