lyrics
On a good day I feel like I could accomplish anything
.
On a good day I feel like I wanna carry on.
and on a good day I feel everything about me illuminating
.
On a good day I feel like I wanna carry on
.
It’s all in your head
.
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me
?
Stuck in your head -
what is wrong with me
?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Stuck in your head
-
Oh, what is wrong with me
?
Oh, what is wrong with me
?
Tell me what’s wrong with me
.
Stuck in your head -
it’s over me
don’t let go of me
don’t let go.
I guess you never really know.
On a bad day I get restless and afraid of everyone
.
On a bad day I am black tar that is pulling down.
On a bad day I am worthless and my very worst enemy
.
On a bad day I am stuck where I don’t want to be
.
In my head -
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
In my head -
Oh, what is wrong with me
?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Tell me what’s wrong with me
.
All in my head -
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Stuck in your head
-
Don’t let go of me
don’t let go.
Guess you never really know.
In my head,
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Stuck in your head -
what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
In my head -
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Oh, what is wrong with me?
Stuck in your head
-
Don’t let go of me
don’t let go
I wanted to tell you though.
