You know it's hard out here for a kid to survive
When the loved ones you've lost are mostly alive
So what do you gotta say
About your way
Of trying to be?
I'm trying to see
Who you're gonna be
I'm dying to see
I'm dying, you see
And you're lying to me
I had a good job
But had a bad day
I got laid up
Couldn't go another way
I took one pill
Then I took two
Fibonacci scale
What can you do?
I don't sleep at night
With all this fight
Inside my brain
So much pain
What do you know about pain?
I betcha don't know about pain
And you think we're the same
But you don't have the strength to say...
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
I took a wrong turn
I got lost quick
I let the fire burn
I found a new trick
I can check out anytime I want
I can check out anytime I want
I don't need your forgiveness just to go about my business
But anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
I'm trying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Who you're gonna be
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Yeah, I'm dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Because I'm dying, you see
But I've still got the strength to say...
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
I'm dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Who you're gonna be
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
I'm dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Who you're gonna be
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Yeah, I’m dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Because I'm dying, you see
(Are you but a witness?)
And you’re lying to me
Are you but a witness?
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
(Are you but a witness?)
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Don’t you ever wanna be
High and alone?
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
Sometimes I wanna be
High and alone
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
I'm dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Who you're gonna be
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
I'm dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Who you're gonna be
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Yeah, I’m dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Because I'm dying, you see
(Are you but a witness?)
And you’re lying to me
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
I'm dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Who you're gonna be
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
I'm dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Who you're gonna be
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
Yeah, I’m dying to see
(Anyone who doesn't give a dollar is a witness)
‘Cause I'm dying, you see
(Are you but a witness?)
And you’re lying to me
Are you but a witness?
