Lyrics:

misread a dose
of prednisone
cried so hard
i couldn’t stand

felt the rage
and let it linger
long enough to
break my hand
ahh
maybe this is who i am
ahh

i’m too old to be feeling like this
too young for a midlife crisis
i’m somewhere in the middle
and i’m feeling
feeling alone as ever is anyone really out there

why can’t
why can’t i just be happy
did i, did i do something wrong
why’s everybody staring at me
i think i’ve been awake too long

why can’t
why can’t i just be happy
did i, did i do something wrong
why’s everybody staring at me
i think i’ve been awake too long
for way too long

misread the room
and killed the mood
and just like that i’m walking home
i guess my friends got better shit to do
then call me back cuz
i’m too old to be feeling like this
too young for a midlife crisis
i’m somewhere in the middle
and i’m feeling
feeling alone as ever is anyone really out there

why can’t
why can’t i just be happy
did i, did i do something wrong
why’s everybody staring at me
i think i’ve been awake too long

why can’t
why can’t i just be happy
did i, did i do something wrong
why’s everybody staring at me
i think i’ve been awake too long
for way too long

i’m too old to be feeling like this
too young for a midlife crisis
i’m somewhere in the middle
pick i’m too old to be feeling like this
too young for a midlife crisis
i’m somewhere in the middle
and i’m feeling
feeling alone as ever is anyone really out there

why can’t
why can’t i just be happy
did i, did i do something wrong
why’s everybody staring at me
i think i’ve been awake too long

why can’t
why can’t i just be happy
did i, did i do something wrong
why’s everybody staring at me
i think i’ve been awake too long
for way too long
