[Verse 1]
Am I the only one with this ache in my jaw
From biting my tongue till I bleed out?
And I want to believe I'm doing better than before
I just can't bear the weight of my conscience anymore
I've got this feeling we're all k**ing ourselves
Just to face the day, just to prove we're alive
So don't ask me what I'm doing with my life
I'm not looking for an answer, just a better place to hide
[Chorus]
You hit the nail on the head when you said I was immature
I'm just a kid on the inside
You know there are parts of these songs that are always yours
So come back and change my mind
And if only the strong survive then how did I get here?
My friends have dollar signs for eyes and I'm depending on fear
So do it for the cash, cash, do it for the money
Do it cause you're scared half to d**h of what's coming
Keep your eyes on the path
You know nothing ever lasts
And only the strong survive
[Verse 2: Anthony Jay Sanders]
I walked a mile with you as just a voice in my ear
It's like advice in my hands with mice and men plans
You swayed me back and forth like a dull chandelier
Yet I stayed centered but not better when your message became clear
That I was younger than a number could say
Like every digit was a rivet in my growing pains
Then you ask me what I'm doing with my life
How could you not know?
[Chorus]
You hit the nail on the head when you said I was immature
I'm just a kid on the inside
You know there are parts of these songs that are always yours
So come back and change my mind
And if only the strong survive then how did I get here?
My friends have dollar signs for eyes and I'm depending on fear
So do it for the cash, cash, do it for the money
Do it cause you're scared half to d**h of what's coming
Keep your eyes on the path
You know nothing ever lasts
And only the strong survive
[Bridge]
I've been skipping out on cla**es to write songs inside my dorm room
And other days I'm too afraid to get out of my bed
Purple marks below my eyes reveal the image of defeat
Will you still say that it's worth it if I've given up on me
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one?
[Chorus]
You hit the nail on the head when you said I was immature
I'm just a kid on the inside
You know there are parts of these songs that are always yours
So come back and change my mind
And if only the strong survive then how did I get here?
My friends have dollar signs for eyes and I'm depending on fear
So do it for the cash, cash, do it for the money
Do it cause you're scared half to d**h of what's coming
Keep your eyes on the path
You know nothing ever lasts
And only the strong survive
