[Verse 1]

I've been blessed with shit luck

There are some things that'll never change

I've been strung out and fed up with the strain

I get a little more nervous every day


[Pre-Chorus]

I just wanna be somethin'

Never thought I'd be nothin' at all


[Chorus]

And it feels like I can't win

I'm growin' up, and I'm givin' in

And it's startin' to hurt

And it feels like I can't win

I couldn't wait to be alone again

And I'm getting worse


[Verse 2]

You say I never try, but you know I do

I couldn't live with my 9 to 5

And I'll regret what I did to you my whole life

No matter what I do, I can never get anything right


[Pre-Chorus]

I just wanna be somethin'

Never thought I'd be nothin' at all


[Chorus]

And it feels like I can't win

I'm growin' up, and I'm givin' in

And it's startin' to hurt

And it feels like I can't win

I couldn't wait to be alone again

And I'm getting worse

I might die of this boredom if you don't kill me first


[Bridge]

Chalk it up

To apathy

I had every chance

I had every opportunity

That I could want

And I ruined 'em all

I had every chance

Never thought I'd be nothin' at all


[Chorus]

And it feels like I can't win

I'm growin' up, and I'm givin' in

And it's startin' to hurt

And it feels like I can't win

I couldn't wait to be alone again

And I'm getting worse

I might die of this boredom if you don't kill me first
