lyrics

It’s so easy to break down doing the things you don’t want to do. Maybe tomorrow will be your last day and your life is left undone. You should be out having fun. All the time you want to think about nothing. I’m always asking myself, “What’s the reason for this hell? What am I doing here”.

What am I doing here when I should be out doing all the things I ever wanted to? How did I get stuck here?

All my life it has been my destiny to be successful, not in a way that’s easily understood. Somehow I’ve ended up this way and I am “happy” now. Am I happy when I’m asking myself, “Hell, What am I doing here?”?

What am I doing here when I should be out doing all the things I ever wanted to? How did I get stuck here?

It’s so easy to get worn down in a wasted life that isn’t you. Maybe tomorrow will be the first day that you don’t want to wake up dead. And if this is what you want, all this trouble that’s earning you nothing, me, I’m always asking myself, “What’s the reason for this hell? What am I doing here?”.
What am I doing here?
