I've got these feelings
and i know that something just ain't rigt
there is something going on, can't eat
can't think, can't sleep at night
maybe the world's falling down
i hope that i won't be around
i tried to fight
i think i'm right but who the fuck's to say
i've heard your views on the evening news
they're played out every fucking day
i think the end is coming down
i hope that i won't be around
stop to think that maybe everything is alright
be all that you can be, nothing left to see
that's not good enough for mee
not good enough for me
not good enough for me
not good enough for me
