lyrics

LYRICS:

These may be my last words as the person that you thought you knew
What am I doing here?
I let my mind wander around here just for a few minutes until I can open my eyes

No more worries, for I'm already screwed

The tally marks engraved in my head are starting to dig in
I'm running out of space
I don't know what I'm doing or where to begin
I'm sinking ten feet deep
I wish I could swim with the current

These years went by too fast for me
Just give me a moment to catch my breath and think of all the minutes that I don't have left
I'm fading in and out of this consciousness
Do I have a choice on what I'm doing with my life next?
I'm starting to think I'm a puppet on strings
Let society decide how they're gonna control me
