Again it rings, that old stressing thing I gotta be on my way Is it time to do what they told me to? Well, not today Still I get no break 'cause the angst will bake I know the ice is getting thin There's no hiding from the enemy that lurks within But I'm hanging on Just like they say you should (Like they say you should) Carrying on In times when nothing's good Here's a nod to those distressing Clichés I will embrace Hoping that true comfort somehow lies In the loner's ways Forgot to sleep, instead of counting sheep I tally times I've slipped Got what it takes to make some more mistakes Can't get enough of it Tryin' to look the other way Hurts my retina Far down the hole I fell and there's no getting up But I'm hanging on Just like they say you should (Like they say you should) Carrying on In times when nothing's good Here's a nod to those distressing Clichés I will embrace Hoping that true comfort somehow lies In the loner's ways I'll hide away in my shed To kill the ghosts inside my head There's no one I would rather be Than the invisible kid so leave me be But I'm hanging on Just like they say you should (Like they say you should) Carrying on In times when nothing's good Here's a nod to those distressing clichés And loner's ways
