i'm livin' in a world that won't stop pullin' on me
i'm not complaining but it's true
it's like i owe my time to everyone else
'cause that's all i seem to do
you might not notice but i need a good friend
someone to talk to when i'm down, down, down
there's so much on my mind that i want to get out
but there's no one around
sometimes i can't help thinkin' what about me
some days go by that i don't even see
yeah i'm doing everything right and i can't break free
oh is this the way it's always gonna be
what about me
well i'm dreamin' i'm on a highway with the windows down
i'm burnin' up the road at my own speed
but i'm stuck here goin' nowhere in this traffic jam
and there's a woman with her kids in the car next to me
and i swear she's singin'
sometimes i can't help thinkin' what about me
some days go by that i don't even see
yeah i'm doing everything right and i can't break free
is this the way it's always gonna be
hey, what about me
oh, sometimes i can't help thinkin' what about me
some days go by that i don't even see
i'm doing everything right and i can't break free
oh is this the way it's always gonna be
what about me
