lyrics

Woah
In the mist I see them standing faceless
And even though their laughter seems aimless
It feels like I've been hurt
Woah
How did I get to be such a nuisance
I'm in need of serious improvement
But for now I'll just avert

Missing out on the little thing
Being held back by my strings
I don't know what age I am
But I'm sure as hell not a man

I think it's kind sad that I can't tell when people laugh with or at me
I think it's about time to give up on the stupid things that make me happy
I think it's kind sad that I can't tell when people laugh with or at me
I think it's about time to give up on the stupid things that make me happy

Woah
I'm in a constant state of fear and worry
One fuck up and they will show no mercy
I'm not safe without control
Woah
Just ignore me I'm a pessimist
Who thinks he's some sort of therapist
Trying to mend his own soul

I think I might think too much
It don't make sense but I've got a hunch
That no one wants me around
Well fuck it, I guess I'll just got skip town

I think it's kind sad that I can't tell when people laugh with or at me
I think it's about time to give up on the stupid things that make me happy
I think it's kind sad that I can't tell when people laugh with or at me
I think it's about time to give up on the stupid things that make me happy

Tell me it'll be alright
That the end of this is close in sight
And I'll keep singing till my lungs give it
I've done nothing wrong
I've been doing alright all along
There's no more need to hide
Cause this will all subside

Tell me that there's someone else
That I'm not here all by myself
And I'll keep singing till my tongue gives out
We've been doing alright
We'll see the word through the same two eyes
And when we feel that spark, we'll hide from the Sun
Together in the dark

I think it's kind sad that I can't tell when people laugh with or at me
I think it's about time to give up on the stupid things that make me happy
I think it's kind sad that I can't tell when people laugh with or at me
I think it's about time to give up on the stupid things that make me happy
