Don't know what you really got
It's hard to stay and not pretend
Can't make sense in what you thought
Seems I can't comprehend
I'm happy to be
Only all that you see
And I'm not one to learn, to be the same
I don't wanna hear you bitch no more
I was better off a year before
No matter how I try, I can't ignore
Every time I think my brain is sore
When I'm with you...
What's so hard about goodbyes
I'm sorry I'm just not as keen
I'm planning out a perfect life
When I'm only nineteen
I'm happy to be
Only all that you see
And I'm not one to learn, to be the same
I don't want to try and just be friends
Nothing's gonna change my mind again
And never hear the thoughts I had were dead
I can't even think inside my head
When I'm with you...
I'm in my way
Can't you see that's the truth
So long can't stay
Won't you see that's the truth
I'm in my way
Can't you see that's the truth
So long can't stay
Won't you see that's the, see that's the, see that's the
Last that I could take
because it's getting really hard to fake
It's not like it's my problem that you're in
But can't you just spare the lives I hate
When I'm with you... 

The faster we're falling,
We're stopping snd stalling,
We're running in circles again
Just as things we're looking up
You said it wasn't good enough.
But still we're trying one more time.

Maybe we're just trying too hard.
When really it's closer than it is too far

Chorus
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm tryin to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm tryin to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.

Seems like each time
I'm with you I lose my mind,
Because I'm bending over backwards to relate.
It's one thing to complain
But when your driving me insane
Well then I think it's time we took a break.

Maybe we're just trying too hard.
When really it's closer than it is too far

Chorus
Instead of going under.

I can't sit back and wonder why.
It took so long for this to die.
And I hate it when you fake it.
You can't hide it you might as well embrace it.
So believe me it's not easy.
It seems like something's telling me,

Chorus
Instead of going under.

Instead of going under again.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under again.
Instead of going under again

Remember when there was nothing else to do,
but lie and bed and, wonder how it was always up to you, and no one else and,
Early mornings, made by warnings, 
what’s the point of the alarm that I’m ignoring?
It’s either raining, I’m not complaining, but waking up is hard to do so,

(Chorus)
Turn my head its back to bed with no delay,
can’t be bothered by the phone ten times a day,
Why get up my morning doesn’t even start till two?
Forget reality waking up is hard to do.

Remember when we would hang out every day, and we would rather,
Not be told what to do or what to say, Cause nothing mattered.
Never boring with slept in mornings, 
not ashamed of bad habits that I’m forming.
Its not important if days are shortened, I can’t make time when nothings new,
Cause waking up is hard to do so,

(Repeat chorus)

What’s a day when it all ends up the same, and lasts forever?
Can’t complain when there’s nothing there to blame,
and things can’t be better.
Summer evenings, teenage grievings, 
got no problem with the life that I’ve been leading.
No concentration on hesitation, I can’t make time when nothings new, Cause
waking up is hard to do so,

(Repeat chorus)

Storming through the party like my name is El Nino
When I'm handgun drinking int he back of the El Camino
As a kid, I was a skid and no one knew me by name.
I trashed my own house party cause nobody came.

I know I'm not the one you thought you knew back in high school.
Never going, ever showing up when we had to.
Is it attention that we crave don't tell us to behave,
I'm sick of always hearing act your age.

I don't wanna waste my time
And become a casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line
Become a victom of your conformity
And back down.

Because you don't
Know us at all we laugh when old people fall.
But what would you expect with a conscience so small.
Heavy metal and mullets it's how we were raised.
Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised.

Cause we like having fun at other people's expense and,
Cutting people down is just like a minor offense then,
It's none of your concern, I guess I'll never learn.
I'm sick of being told to wait my turn.

I don't want to waste my time
And become a casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line
Become a victom of your conformity
And back down.

Don't count on me, to let you know when.
Don't count on me, I'll do it again.
Don't count on  me, it's the point you're missing.
Don't count on me cause im not listening.

Well I'm a no-goodnick lower middle class brat,
Back packed and i don't give a shit about nothing.
You be standing on the corner talking all that kufuffin.
Don't you make sense from all the gas you be huffing.
Then if the egg don't stain you'll be rining off the hook,
You're on the hit list wanted in the telephone book.
I like the song with distortion, to drink in proportion.
The doctor said my mom should of had an abortion.

I don't want to waste my time
And become a casualty of society.
I'll never fall in line
Become a victom of your conformity
And back down.
Waste my time with them
Casualty of society.
Waste my time again,
Victim of your conformity
And back down.
