Lyrics

[Intro] Hey, hey [Verse 1] Sometimes I wanna take the car out on the road And flip it into park and smash myself Into a million little pieces I'm tired of knowing what about myself is wrong But never mustering up the resolve To really try to change it [Chorus] I walk outside and people say, "Hey!" And sometimes I just wanna say "Hey, go away, go away" So I guess I better stay inside [Verse 2] I've read that if you just sit in a chair and think Of focusing your nervous energy On the beauty of breathing You could live a life of real tranquility But I just thought of every stupid thing That's been keeping me from sleeping [Chorus] I close my eyes and it won't go away I plug my ears, but they're ringing out "Hey, hey, hey" [Outro] It keeps, keeps me from believing That maybe someday the thing will work And maybe I won't feel like a jerk And maybe the words I say will stop coming out weighted Maybe someday I'll wanna breathe And maybe the people that I meet Won't lead to a certain future where I'm betrayed And I'm so jaded, I'm so jaded And that, that's why I'm so fucking sad
