[Verse 1]
I don't mind
Wasting away with you until the end of time
But I should let you know I'm a haunted house sometimes
I will let you in, but you'll want out most times
But I will let you in
[Chorus]
All I've gotta do is try, but I can't
Find a way to make it fine, but I can't
Fake a smile, I'm alright, I'll pretend
All I've gotta do is try, but I can't
[Verse 2]
Now I sink
The walls are closing in, the roof is crumbling
But I can hardly move, I just watch and think
I'm who got me in, I'll get me out I think
I'm who got me in
[Chorus]
All I've gotta do is try, but I can't
Find a way to make it fine, but I can't
Fake a smile, I'm alright, I'll pretend
All I've gotta do is try, but I can't
[Bridge]
It happened long ago
Wires crossed in my head
They said, "leavŠµ it alone"
"It'll pass," they said
But I needed morŠµ than they thought I did
Seventeen years old, I was only a kid
Can't tell if I've changed, since I never really quit
Filling my brain with all this hurtful shit
Can I feel okay in my own skin?
I just wanted to feel loved, but never did
[Chorus]
All I've gotta do is try, but I can't
Find a way to make it fine, but I can't
Fake a smile, I'm alright, I'll pretend
All I've gotta do is try, but I can't
