Lyrics

What The Hell

[Verse 1]

Turn off the alarm and wake up

I tell myself

I always end up sleeping in

Tomorrow things will be easier

I tell myself

But the weight of everything

Just gets heavier and heavier and heavier

[Chorus]

What the Hell?

I thought I had it figured

Thought I had it figured

Thought I had it figured out

What the Hell?

Who said I had to figure

Said I had to figure

Said I had to figure it out

Or I can’t be happy now?

[Verse 2]

Put my dinner in the microwave again

It’s really not that bad

Kicked the dirty laundry on the floor

Underneath my bed

Ignored the mail

It’s just student loans

That I can’t pay back

You said things would get easier

But I’m not holding my breath

[Chorus]

What the Hell?

I thought I had it figured

Thought I had it figured

Thought I had it figured out

What the Hell?

Who said I had to figure

Said I had to figure

Said I had to figure it out

Or I can’t be happy now?

[Bridge]

How can I sleep, how can I sleep

Knowing the world is spinning without me?

Stuck in my bed, lost in my sheets

Thank God I don’t lose my mind

As much as I lose my keys

[Chorus]

What the Hell?

I thought I had it figured

Thought I had it figured

Thought I had it figured out

What the Hell?

Who said I had to figure

Said I had to figure

Said I had to figure it out

Or I can’t be happy now?
