Lyrics

NERVOUS

Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?

After all this time, I should feel better now (better now)
Trying to get above the noise that drowns me out (drowns me out)
Skin is crawling, hands are shaking
Can't breathe, my heart is racing
Feels like my shadow's chasing me

Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?
Trying to find my purpose
Am I the only one?
Why am I so anxious?
Why am I so stuck?
I'm just being honest, 'cause everything is fucked
Why am I so nervous?

Every moment feels like I'm under attack
Waiting for the worst to stab me in the back
Blood is racing through my veins
I'm waiting for my world to change
Before it changes me

Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?
Trying to find my purpose
Am I the only one?
Why am I so anxious?
Why am I so stuck?
I'm just being honest, 'cause everything is fucked

Everything is upside down and out of reach (oh-oh)
Nothing here is what it seems
Will I ever be the same? (Oh-oh, ever be the same)
No, I'll never be the same

Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?
Trying to find my purpose
Am I the only one?
Why am I so anxious?
Why am I so stuck?
I'm just being honest, 'cause everything is
Everything is fucked

(Oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so nervous?
