[Verse 1]

You're always locked away

In your room you'll stay

Indecisive about the future

How your dreams have gone off to play

Stuck in a loop

As your birthdays pass

One day you'll wake up with a box full of junk

To remember the life you had

[Chorus]

Get a break some time

You'll never be happy if the sun don't shine

But it always shines where I live (wo-ooo-oah)

So I let down the shades

The big black curtains keep the light away (light away)

I wanna feel better but not today

[Bridge]

And everything is meaningless in some regard

I haven't found any so far

I've just been scrabblin' in the dirt to keep from crashing

I will push through the pain

Reach into the fire

Take experience to heart

And let the rest transpire

Just wake up each day to live

Just wake up each day to live

[Chorus]

Get a break some time

You'll never be happy if the sun don't shine

But it always shines where I live

So I let down the shades

The big black curtains keep the light away

I wanna feel better but not today
