[Verse 1]
I'm living in a world that won't stop pulling on me
I'm not complaining but it's true
It's like I owe my time to everyone else
Because that's all I seem to do
You might not notice but I need a good friend
Someone to talk to when I'm down, down, down
There's so much on my mind that I want to get out
But there's no one around

[Chorus]
Sometimes I can't help thinking what about me
Some days go by that I don't even see
Yeah I'm doing everything right and I can't break free
Oh is this the way it's always going to be
What about me

[Verse 2]
Well I was Dreamin I'm on a highway with the windows down
I'm burning up the road at my own speed
But I'm stuck here going nowhere in this traffic jam
And there's a woman with her kids in the car next to me
And I swear she's singing

[Chorus]
Sometimes I can't help thinking what about me
Some days go by that I don't even see
Yeah I'm doing everything right and I can't break free
Oh is this the way it's always going to be
What about me
Sometimes I can't help thinking what about me
Some days go by that I don't even see
Yeah I'm doing everything right and I can't break free
Oh is this the way it's always going to be
What about me
[Outro]
Ooo what about me
Hey what about me
