When I was a kid I was excited as can be The world was my oyster I could do anything And I think that was due to my uncertainty Because the more I figure out who I happen to be I get more stressed and I get more depressed And I lose more and more hours of rest And I always feel like I'm an unwelcome guest on the surface Of the earth's chest So I write suicide notes and put them over chords and Call them songs And I'm starting to hate the things I Once adored so why do I bother at all But there is not enough time to feel stressed and depressed And be filled with self-hate I need to start making my life better and eventually great.
