Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can't sleep can't get away or out of my head
Don't know how the situation got to where it lead oh yeah
Watchin the day's go by livin a constant lie
Sitin around askin why oh

All night all day I can't find my way
If I could only say I can't change anyway
Siting in a slump movin bump to bump aw yeah
The only way I could see it it ain't easy oh
Sink a little faster movin closer to disaster
Know the only way to go is up oh

All night all day I can't find my way
If I could only say I can't change anyway

Rips in my clothes clouds in my head oh yeah
Get it together or think that it's dead oh
Sitin at the bottom ain't like they said
Just can't fall back now get ahead oh

All night all day I can't find my way
If I could only say I can't change anyway




All night all day I can't find my way
If I could only say I can't change anyway
