lyrics
I'm sorry I never knew what to say
I'm sorry the chemicals in my head don't work just like they should
when you were reprimanding me
I guess some thing just can't be taught
But I really wish they could
Somehow, some day some way I make everything
alright, okay
just as long as I don't let
You and your family get in the way of
Me and my destiny
Can't you see that
Sometimes I'm just too weak
Sometimes I don't get enough sleep
Sometimes I let petty outsiders
Dictate my life for me
I'm sorry I never knew what to do
Couldn't help but feel like I'd been screwed
by the upper one percent
and their middle class monkeys
Who live in the world made on TV
I wish they really would wake up
Somehow, someday some way I'll make everything
Alright, okay
Just as long as I don't let
You and your bureaucracy
Get in the way of
Me and my destiny
Can't you see that
Sometimes I'm just too weak
Sometimes I don't get enough sleep
Sometimes I let petty outsiders
Dictate my life for me
Could you let it go
Could you let me live
I already apologized for everything I ever did
Don't you think it's time we switch roles
Cuz I can think of a thousand things that you did
to put the downswing of my life into full effect
Don't you forget that you begged me let you tag along
Somehow, someday someway I'll make everything
Alright, okay
Just as long as I don't let you
stand in the way of me
