lyrics

Here I sit looking at a reflection of me
Can’t decide in my mind if I like what I see.
Growing colder, the breeze on my shoulder
On this rainy, lonely night.

Tryin' to put together all of the words that you said
Like a thousand piece jigsaw puzzle in my head
Growing more confused, wish it was just a rouse
Cause it don’t feel right.

And I wish that I could just get past it.
Cause I’m not the type to be a basketcase.
Why do I feel so out of place
Can someone tell me why

I’m sitting here wide awake
Too much on my plate
Pretending to be what I’m not sure is me.
Do I put on a happy face
Or honestly embrace
The angel on my shoulder or the devil on the otherside.

‘Tween a rock and a hard place and I wanna run.
But I’m worried I might miss out on all the fun.
Feel committed though I’ve been acquitted.
Of the charges that I face.

These decisions are coming upon me real fast
Gotta think of my future, but can’t leave the past
It’s so hard to know where do I wanna go
Gotta find my place.

And I wish that I could just get past it.
Cause I’m not the type to be a basketcase.
Why do I feel so out of place
Can someone tell me why

I’m sitting here wide awake
Too much on my plate
Pretending to be what I’m not sure is me.
Do I put on a happy face
Or honestly embrace
The angel on my shoulder or the devil on the otherside.

Gotta make some choices, standing out on the ledge
Gotta clear the voices in my head.

And I wish that I could just get past it.
Cause I’m not the type to be a basketcase.
Why do I feel so out of place
Can someone tell me why

I’m sitting here wide awake
Too much on my plate
Pretending to be what I’m not sure is me.
Do I put on a happy face
Or honestly embrace
The angel on my shoulder or the devil on the otherside.
