Go-getter what's got you feeling down?
All the way out, on your own again?
All the thoughts, racing through your head
What you could've done, who you should've been
Put aside and play pretend
Are you feeling not up to task these days?
Your intentions are good, but your bones can't support the weight
Do you wanna leave? Vanish without a trace?
I've felt the same
Neon lights aren't just a passing phase
Waste away the time, mask the pain.
You weren't yourself, you can't be blamed.
Wouldn't it be nice though? To feel whole again?
At peace in your own skin.
Can't drop out or run away
When everybody knows your name
(So) Put another dollar in the jukebox
Turn it up
Take a sip, close your eyes shut
Sing along because it makes us feel alive
The weight of expectations is stuck outside.
